Mag Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 my CPU temperate is at 120F, I was wondering if it's a good idea to install another fan ? my chip is AMD 64 btw... I just like everything cooled at the best level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montpics Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 If you think that you had enough budget for installing the fan, then go for it. For me, I would like to buy a fan for my PC as the CPU temp keeps over 60C but still in broke. Btw, 120F = ?C. Bad in calculating a formula....

Wizard Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 120F = 48.9C Best to cool at 95F/35C I got home made heatsinks and 4 fans to say my comp is roughly at 35/32C. Also with the combining tempurature of my room also adds to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montpics Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Wow! 4 fans you put in. Looks like my one-fan is still not enough for my PC....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Ok...most CPUs can go all the way up to 60 C and nothing will happen. I used to be a real cooling freak but it just really doesn't matter that much. I have to clean my CPU heatsink fins because it has so much dust on it that it's hindering heat dissipation.

gfrommy Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I would go for a heatsink and a fan, and depending on your computer configuration you may want to add an exaust fan in a key location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
