    Solved Performance problems with my setup

    Hello! This is my first post in PCHF :) I got a custom PC in November of 2018. I have been using it for gaming, studying and usual tasks and had no problems with it for many years. I have played games like Dishonored, Dead Island, DMC Devil May Cry, Borderlands, Fortnite, all Batman Arkham...

    Hello, So, I recently picked up an Omen 25L PC with a Core i7-10900 in it. After starting up Rainbow Six Siege, I noticed something relatively abnormal. My CPU's temps were very high with each core hitting 87-91C. My computer is also relatively loud in this process (see video for reference)...

    Solved Fan getting stuck and turning slower

    Link to show the problem: One of the two fans is suddenly turning slower than the other, and seems to be obstructed by something, though I can’t figure out what it could be. Does anyone have any ideas for how to fix this?

    After Windows Shutdown HDD turned off but Motherboard and Fans are still running

    Dear IT Experts, I hope there is someone out there who can help me. A relative got a HP Pavillion p6-2027 with HDD which was very slow. I offered her to make the PC faster and installed an SSD (Samsung 860 Evo 250GB) with Windows 10 64-Bit. After the installation was done I encountered...

    Why can i only control my CPU fan once it has started running (I cant start it by myself though)

    I have an Acer Predator G3 that is about 6 years old. Except for a new Rx 5700 GPU and a new power adapter everything is original. My CPU gets about 90-100°C hot until the cpu-fan starts blowing (without me doing anything, that means BIOS controlled, so no software or BIOS changes here) at very...

    Solved PWM Fans at 0RPM/0V?

    Hi all. Quick question: I'm running an Asus Prime B250M-Plus with 2 Akasa Piranha 120mm case fans on it and a CPU fan (Pure Wings 2) on my heatsink. When gaming, the RPM control is great for keeping temps down and I have seen massive improvement in my temperatures. However when idle, the fans...

My current build has been working a treat so far, despite a few road bumps...

    Solved High CPU usage and temperature after cleaning

    My CPU usage is unusually high since I cleared all the dust out from my case (there was a lot). Just opening any web page consistently shoots it up to between 25-45% and while this happens the fan gets much louder, louder than it used to go even when running intensive games. Also the fan becomes...

    Solved Replaced CPU Cooler and re-mounted smaller heatsink; now fans LOUD and display is blank!!

    I have a HP Compaq Elite 8300 USDT pc- the reeeealy small one. I have it running 24/7 as a media server, and I wanted to upgrade the cooling a little bit. Since the form factor is so small, and a replacement/larger case is out of the question (as well as liquid cooling for now), I purchased the...
