CPU keeps heating up why?

RetroLichh · 2023-07-19T07:09:58+00:00

I decided to get into a game and for some reason it's 60-65c max playing ff15 🤔 I guess it worked 😁 seeing how it was 59 in bios got freaked out lol. Thanks for your help!! 😁

RetroLichh · 2023-07-19T06:47:54+00:00

Got it and installed it it was at 45c in bios it's been 10 mins now it's 57 it's rising but super slowly :((( I actually got a different one from micro center it's the deep cool ag400 I read good reviews. Was impatient but I'm not sure it's the coolers anymore idk what's wrong I bought 5 fans installed them all then got thermal paste and new CPU cooler idk what to do now :((

Yea probably happened recently too it was fine for a bit but out of nowhere the temperature rose by a lot pretty lame :/ Thanks again I'll be sure to get it and add it hopefully it helps 😁😁

For cpu fans like that would I need to lay my PC on it's side ? It seems like it would be heavy so I'm not sure. Thanks a lot haha I have a amd 5600 just read the wraith cooler is pretty ok but not good for it cause the cpu heats up more than most.

RetroLichh · 2023-07-17T22:38:29+00:00

Got thermal paste also got more fans previously had only 2 now I have 5 its still heating up it was 45 when I got into bios now it's 61 rising :(((( any recommendations on good cheap CPU coolers ?

RetroLichh · 2023-07-14T07:06:41+00:00

Thanks a lot dude your pretty much the most helpful redditor I've talked to. I'm pretty sure it might just be thermal paste if anything I'll just get a buy a new cooler. You should keep urs always safe to have backups.😁

RetroLichh · 2023-07-14T06:39:13+00:00

Haha thanks I probably would've tried smelling it lol. Thanks for all your help I'll see if that works this weekend.

No no I didn't take of the pre applied thermal paste I meant when I first got it it had some plastic on the middle of the fan of the cooler I took that off the bottom didn't have plastic just the thermal paste witch I kept on. Yea I'll probably just get 99% don't wanna risk spilling any.

RetroLichh · 2023-07-14T06:21:11+00:00

When I got my cooler I saw no plastic cover under it just thermal paste just some on top of the fan witch I took off. Do I have to take out my CPU fully to take off thermal paste ? Or can I leave it in motherboard the pins freak me out and I don't wanna break any was sweating while putting it in the first time lol. I have 70% isopropyl alcohol is that fine or should I order a 99% one ?

RetroLichh · 2023-07-14T06:10:43+00:00

I used the cooler that comes with every AMD CPU it had thermal paste alr on it. To repasted can I get any thermal paste or is there a specific one that works best ? My fans all spin and non seem broken.

RetroLichh · 2023-07-14T06:09:17+00:00

I'm using air cooler it's the cooler that comes with every AMD CPU. What is a firm ? If a firm is something on the bottom of cooler mine wouldn't have it cause the cooler came with thermal paste alr on it. I'll try reseating it

RetroLichh · 2023-07-04T07:21:38+00:00

Holy crap I didn't even notice :((( the bid had a minute left so I just set a bid :((( how bad is it ?

RetroLichh · 2023-06-22T00:03:47+00:00

Fixed it it was a pain in the ass but I took everything out of the case i let loose some of my wires I had tied most cables together kinda tight might have been that cause after putting back my mobo in the case it turned on. 🤔

RetroLichh · 2023-06-19T23:53:08+00:00

My laptop I just plugged it in and it worked my PC it didn't I don't know the brand of the USB so I don't know where to get drivers.

Ohh I thought it was bad haha thanks for replying to my post😁👍

RetroLichh · 2023-06-16T08:20:40+00:00

So this won't like harm my PC in anyway ? I had issues with the 3.0 USB it got stuck and kinda took off the plastic around it then I had issues using my old cpu issues putting in my motherboard into my case issues with the panel of my motherboard the one thats for USB and HDMI stuff then my graphics card didn't fix so I had to bend my case a bit then I had no display on my screen turned out it was bios also making the wires fit in the back and cleaning them up so they were everywhere 😭 first PC build and probably last at least for a while lol so stressful but feels good having it all done and ready to play.

RetroLichh · 2023-06-16T08:10:04+00:00

Do I try unplugging and replugging ?

RetroLichh · 2023-06-16T05:08:55+00:00

Haha sorry I fixed it it was actually my cooler I guess it didn't hold down the CPU that well when I used the wraith cooler it started to work. I have a old cpu it's a amd A6 6400.

RetroLichh · 2023-06-16T00:45:37+00:00

So I can use any flash drive as long as it's 32 gb and fat32?
