    Temp Way Over What It Should Be!!

    i got sisoftware from a friend and my temp for my chip (an athlon xp 2100+) never goes below 150 Degrees and the motherboard never goes below 90 degrees i only have 1 fan a 220 watt PSU and the case is open for little more air also the board i an nforce 1 thats all i know.... is it the PSU losing wattage or the fan???

    Never argue with idiots. They bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience

    If an Abercrombie decided breathing wasn't "cool"- half of the teenage population would be dead in 24 hours.

    well first of all
    did you put your pc together yourself
    or did you buy it ready to run ?

    and i dont think its 150 celcius
    (it would be dead at that temp)
    i think its Fahrenheit and that means that your temp is 65 celcius like my xp2000 that i have
    but you can check your cpu fan for dust and clean it it can get your temp down a little

    then a few more fans are needed
    in the case to make the air cooler
    i think you can fit one in at the front and one at the back
    the one in the front sucks in air in to the case and the one in the back blows out hot air from the case
    but if you do that you have to put the side panel back on so it wont disturb your fans hard work to circulate the air

    well i think that the 220 watt psu is not 220 watt but something else
    please check the small label on it and you will find maybe 300 w or something else
    But if it is a 220 then maybe its better to buy a new psu
    i have a 400w in my pc

    ohh and the 90 F is 32 C

            i was just looking at the post for pc shutdown and thats exactly what mines doing now!! but it only happens when playing during games i never really read what was wrong just got mad and unplugged it for about 10 mins but it always happens but usually randomly (between 25-2hrs time) could this also be a temp related problem?
