Hi, I have a Fujitsu Siemns Scaelo T computer and the fan on the cpu is always very loud, my computer fan doesn't meet the CPU target of 60 degrees, my cpu reaches tempreautures of 90 degrees, so the CPU fan will always be loud till I meet the target, what can I do to make my PC quiet again? Thanks.
The heatsink on the CPU, not just the fan. Get one of these: US link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186134 UK link: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=340995
Seeing as I live in the Uk, i shall purchase that one, so all I have to do i buy that one and replace it with the one I have now, are they hard to replace ?
They aren't hard to replace - however, you will need to remove the existing thermal paste before you slap the new cooler on - they come preapplied with their own so you don't need to use new stuff, but you should use the following stuff to remove the gunk off your CPU: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=130264
are you sure it's the cpu fan? Most of the times that I've had loud fans, it's always been the video card fan. It's a small fan, but when they start going bad, they make alot of noise for there size.
I am 100% sure its the cpu fan, i'm thinking about purchasing this one, would this be better ? http://www.eclipsecomputers.com/product.aspx?code=HFZ-CNPS9500AT&af=50
I recommend taking the heatsink and the fan out of your pc and taking them both to a specialist and ask him/her about the problem, because it is very hard to tell what the problem is, for example, once by pc was making a "drilling" noise, i thought it was possibly a frayed cpu or a faulty heatsink, i took out the heatsink, cpu, and fan and took them down to my mates house, who is a specialist, he said there was nothing wrong with any of them, i fitted them all back, and later on, i found out it was a faulty cylinder in my hard drive, sent it to waranty company, and they resealed the cylinder chamber and it worked fine eversince
The one I listed does just as good a job as the Zalman and doesn't get filled up with dust like it does - plus its cheaper. Oh, and for the record, don't use Eclipse computers - very poor customer service.
mc22hc, has it always been like this?? If not,is your cpu cooler full of dust? If so the fan will be working overtime. Might be time for a spring clean? Regards,Crowy.
No it hasnt been lyk this all the time, and i've ordered some compressed air now also,but do I take the cooler of the cpu or spray it in there while its placed on the cpu still ? Thanks
m8 try undusting all the fans you have in the computer first. (inc gfx) than use speed fan, to turn it down from 100% to something lower
