    Computer is running hotter than usual
    « on: June 21, 2009, 07:27:33 AM »
    Hello,

    My computer is running hotter than usual. I dont know the temp, I dont think my motherboard supports that ability to show the temp. The issue it that there is ALOT of heat coming from my computer. It is making my room extremely hot! I know it never used to run hot, and am thinking something may have been damaged during the move. Any info would be great. Thanks

        Alright, I downloaded SpeedFan. Heres the temp info:

        GPU: 48c
        temp1: 39c
        Temp2: 45c
        Temp3: 23c
        temp: 127c
        temp: 127c
        HD0: 46c
        HD1: 45c
        Temp1: 40c

        And Fan Speeds:

        Fan1: 1815
        Fan2: 3516
        Fan3: 831
        Fan4: 0
        Fan5: 0

        Ok so wow, cow can I tell what is running at 127c? Thats crazy if something is running that hot, but with the amount of heat comeing out I believe it.

          The 2 temp's that are at 127c are staying at 127c. They do not change in temp at all, all the other trmps change... I dont get it :/

          The 127C temps are almost certainly broken/non-existent sensors, so don't worry about them.
          The amount of heat coming from your machine can't be reduced unless you swap the hardware or slow it down.
          Your CPU doesn't seem to have a temperature sensor, but your other temps should be fine, other than your HDDs - they're a little warm.
          What are your computer's specifications, and/or make and model?

          Where do you notice most of the heat coming?  Is it from the back of your PSU (power supply unit), where the PSU fan exhausts air?  If you put your hand on the case above the PSU, does the case feel a lot hotter there than the rest of the case?
