    Computer not being able to run games.

    Hi i’m not sure this is the right thread but basically i’ve had this PC for 6 months, it has a AMD FX 9370 Eight Core Processor clocked at 4.42 ghz, 8GB of DDR3 RAM and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 graphics card, i also have a cpu cooler but i dont know brand or type. This PC was intended for gaming and has been great but recently it just can’t handle games, even something as simple as minecraft. It’s even started to struggle with basic things such as google chrome and spotify. It just gets so loud and then overheats itself and turns off. I downloaded Speedfan to see the temperatures and they’re not even that high, right now as I’m writing this the temps are:
    GPU: 44C
    Temp1: 44C
    Temp2: 36C
    Temp3: -128C
    HD0: 36C
    Core: 25C
    I’m not sure what some of these mean but i hope it’s helpful. But even at these temps, it’s still really hot and loud and I do not understand. Can someone help? Thank you.

        Since this is a new system some of the stuff that you may be instructed to preform may VOID the warranty.

        Contact the manufacture and have them diagnose the issue.

          There is a distinct lack of Windows updates installed on the computer and the reason being is because they have failed to install.

          [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]Operating System Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit

          Can I ask who installed the above version of Windows on this computer, reason I ask is because it is intended for large corporations and education facilities and not for personal use, this most likely why Windows will not update and unfortunately troubleshooting a computer that has an out of date OS is a waste of time trying to fix until it is fully up to date, one of the updates could be the fix that you need to resolve the issue.[/COLOR]

            Thread closed due to lack of any feedback from the OP regarding the OS.
