Gaming RIG for 50K

> Temps are fine, but you took the screenshot after running the game but you should have done that while running the game.

> Move the top exhaust to side panel as intake. This will bring more cool winter air inside. BTW that multicolor fan looks

I'll get u screen shots of both while playing the game and while the system is idle.

But will moving the top fan resolve my problem of the CPU and motherboard temperature reaching 90 and then shutting down.
Or will I have to buy an heat sink (deepcool frostwin which rijinpk1 suggested cause im really scared to play any games,also if the computer shuts down automatically does it cause any damage to my hardware?? and will any of the heat sinks fit in my NZXT gamma)

And yes i know the LED fan does luk yuk but i didnt realize it while buying it. I guess i just have bad taste..

if it is hitting 90+ during gameplay then you must install an aftermarket heatsink like 212 evo, stock heatsink is not enough to cool fx8350

run ibt or prime95 and check if temps go high or not

heat does cause shortning of ueable life of components and degradation of performance of components

Try these.

Get 2 120mm fans. Fit two on the side and two on the top. preferably turn off the rear exhaust and use it on Top. Check with this config and report back. If this does not help get a better thermal compound and an aftermarket cooler.

Will the Deepcool Frostwin fit in my cabinet cause it looks kinda big.

if you dont have any side fans , it should fit it easily as cpu cooler height is 151mm ad gamma has around 160mm cooler height clearance.

 

[saurabh_bansal90]

These are the temperature at idle time
@truegenius
Dude i have heard that prime95 takes the computer to its extreme level,and the system is already giving me small heart attacks and after hearing that is causes damage to the components I dont wanna take any risks. I'll try prime 95 after installing Deepcool frostwin.

^ ideal temp is good bro

^ ideal temp is good bro

I know but idle temp is not what im worried about its the temp when i play games(also check the tj max temp its 90 C)
And i'm scared to post snapshots while playing games.(bahat papad bele hain yaar yeh PC ke liye,if something happens to it the consequences would be really really bad...)

Also no one has replied anything regarding the MB temperature reaching so high(is it something like when the CPU temp increases so does the MB, also does an after market cooler also help to maintain the temps of the motherboard or it just maintains the temp of CPU)

it can be a software issue
try hwinfo64 software to check temperatures

 

[saurabh_bansal90]

Ok guys i think probably something is wrong with the motherboard or the processor itself. (its reaching the temperature of 60 C while im just using my browser.(cud anyone provide me with service centre numbers of AMD coz while filling the AMD warrenty request form online i cant find my Processor Model number in their list.)

 

[rijinpk1]

can you post a screenshot of hwinfo64. (use some demanding softwares or browse for some hours while the hwinfo64 should run in the background)?

ok i would do so

my bios version is 1503 is it up to date or do i have to update it(i read it at a lot of places that is the bios is not up to date the CPU does heat up a lot)

i dont think so. check dxdiag for bios date.

the temperatures reported by softwares like the one in the screenshot may not be entirely accurate-download ASUS AI SUITE ii and check the readings once again.

Ok guys this thread is becoming a never ending thread, so does my problems.

Still having the overheating problem,

I thought it was the motherboard so gave it to Digicare-official RMA for Asus (had two other issues as well with the motherboard out of the box, 1-The reset switch wasn't working and 2-The HDD reading light of the cabinet was not functioning and of-course the heating issue)

Got the motherboard in 15 days the first two problems were fixed but overheating problem was still there.

So thought the problem must be the processor so wrote into AMD (as couldn't find any contact number to contact AMD)

AMD replaced the processor for me got a new processor today.(after a month gave it to AMD on 4th jan)

Installed it and was hoping that now the issue would be surely resolved, but it seems my sufferings are never going to come to an end.

Now the problem could either be with the PSU- Seasonic S12 II 620W or the Graphic card- Zotac 760 Amp! Edition or the Problem with the mother board is not solved (cant be the processor as I got new one in replacement, although didn't get the processor this time in metal case which previously I got, which I gave away while giving my Processor for RMA at Accelfrontline)

I am already talking to Prathamesh Kenny (Service manager of the Western region for Asus) as prescribed by him he's telling me to give the motherboard again to Digicomp Service Centre at Lamington road.

So What should I do? Do you'll think that the problem is actually with the motherboard or it could be with the PSU or the GPU?

And sorry for bothering you'll again and again

Seasonic S12 520W 4000

Total 56900

That's awesome price! Please share the shop name.

A better thermal compound a cpu cooler might solve the problem. On second thoughts do you have cool n quiet on?

Dude these prices were given to me long long back from dynamic Computers which has now merged with Neo Computers on Lamington and has formed Neo Dynamics, before getting my PC I went to Dynamic Computers but the prices were revised to what I got my Computers from Premdeep Computers must be like 5 % higher than premdeep computers.

A better thermal compound a cpu cooler might solve the problem. On second thoughts do you have cool n quiet on?

Cool & Quite well Isn't it used to control the temperature and fan speed while its Idle, wont be much of a help when playing games will it??

cud u give me a tutorial's link of how to start Cool & Quite?

post a screenshot of hwinfo64. (use some demanding softwares or browse for some hours while the hwinfo64 should run in the background)?

The motherboard and all the other stuff is out of the cabinet going tomorrow to Lamington Road to submit my Motherboard, will post the screenshots after 7 working days after i get my motherboard back.

if the temperature you worry is about is the Tj max, then dont worry(as posted in the last page). it is the maximum temperature set by amd that your processor will handle. in my case it is 105 degrees. check only minimum and maximum temperature. i think you are just fine.

Tj max is the maximum allowable temp for a processor's internal cores, if you reach Tj max the processor's THERMTRIP# signal will activate shutdown to prevent damage to the processor.

yes i know i should worry about the minimum and maximum but previously my system had reached the temp of 90 degree that's the reason it shuts down (I had mentioned it in my previous posts)
