I have a intel i7 7970 and while im gaming it goes to 77 degrees normally, I do have a stock fan and i have recently applied thermal paste, is this in urgent need of sorting or can this be okay.
90 is high for the games you are playing.
I had the same issue as you when my laptop's CPU went up to 90c. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. for example in the long run. I run my laptop on around 80.6°F (27°C) ambient temp.
Try cutting down on your daily gaming time. i suggest you to use that laptop on hard surface so it can cool components properly, get a vacuum fan cooler or cooling pad to help it cool down, and if you can do some disassembly and have no problem with doing dat, you can re-apply the thermal paste with the better one, also if you want to tweak the config a bit, you can do down volt which is reducing the volt a bit(vary on every processor) using intel extreme tuning utility and make the processor make a bit less heatSounds like you may be gaming on it for too long a spell.
thx in advance I'm not sure what temperatures others are getting and if it is normal or not but while gaming both the CPU and the GPU temperature spikes upto 97° and 87°C respectively.
are 70-93 (max fan speed is ON).
This is a safety feature to prevent frying your CPU. I have a intel i7 7970 and while im gaming it goes to 77 degrees normally, I do have a stock fan and i have recently applied thermal paste, is this in urgent need of sorting or can this be okay.
for example in the long run. JavaScript is disabled. I had temps close to 95c with stock cooler only when running CB20 multi core benchmark.
if you spend 20 quid on one it will be good
my CPU heat sink was have some dust so it was block the air that coming from CPU fan and problem is you most use powerful Air blower that can remove this dust without letting fans or cpu fan moving like u have to stop it by ur hand and don't closer your Air blower to ur PC parts so after i remove that cursed dust my cpu temps back to 45c Idle and while gaming is 60c to 65c and i feel safe now
@nvincent_08 im already using a cooling pad with a 200mm diameter fan running at 700rpm, do u think re applying thermal paste would be better?
You must log in or register to reply here. @Lim_4_ your suggestion works man the temp drop now playing on 75-80C while gaming , but is there a consequence when my fan is rotating 75%-100% when gaming? this is just a 2 months old laptop tho nah not really, it is near the limit of max temp and it can make your cpu throttle and also for sure it is really bad for long term usage.
