PC Gets Extremely Loud Only When Gaming

[Evan_Greenwood]

Hope all is well, seeing if I can get some help and a second opinion on an issue my PC is facing. ONLY when I play a game like World of Warcraft, Overwatch 2, etc my PC occasionally decides to run in overdrive as if it is overheating. This also only happens for a split 1-2 seconds then goes back to normal. For example if I do anything that isn’t gaming ie- watcha video, browse internet, etc my PC is perfectly fine no loudness but if I play any game, not right away but when it decides to do so, it will start becoming louder for roughly a second or 2 and it will do this on an up and down process. What I mean by that is if you have seen a regular heartbeat in the hospital it is like that up and down up and down. Whatever info you need from my end let me know and how to do it and I will get it for you. Here is everything I have tried below, I am not a huge PC expert but can navigate a PC with ease once told what to do.

I did a simple command prompt DISM and SCN
I ran a program called DDU to safely remove and uninstall my GPU 2060 Nvidia and reinstalled it from the website

I am trying everything besides a fresh install as I want to do that as a last resort, so if anyone has any ideas hit me up please.

Download Realtemp. Run it while you are gaming. Take a screenshot of the Realtemp window and upload it in your next post.

pic 1 is before gaming pic 2 is during gaming when the PC decides to get louder for a split second.

Those temperatures are fine. The loudness is more than likely the active cooling function of the motherboard. I would say it’s normal. This is what you want to happen when your temperatures rise under load.

What are the temps at idle/not gaming?

I’m assuming when you say loud you mean fan noise?

[Evan_Greenwood]

I assume it’s the fans, when I reproduce it again later today when I get back home want me to record a quick vid to send a google link here so you can hear it?

It isn’t normal to me as I have had the PC since 2019 and yes the fans tend to get louder on workload but not what they doing now. They get extremely loud for roughly 1 second and go back to normal then do it again and again like every minute.

When I launch a game it’s fine for roughly 10minutes then it starts up doing then process of getting loud and not.

The idle temps are in the first pic didn’t really have much open. I can do everything on the PC fine, no issues at all, and even when I game no lag nothing changes just the PC gets loud.

so you can hear it?

No need. Unless it will put your mind at ease.

I have had the PC since 2019

Unplug everything, open the case and give it a thorough cleaning.

Possibly the cleanest PC you’d ever see haha
