first off.
AMD +2800 barton (aero cool phantom, copper heatsinks)
gigabyte ga7n400 pro2
1gig ram 333mhz
200gig Western D. hdd
6 case fans, 2 psu fans 550psu
nvidia geforce3 ti200
windows xp pro
ok, so my problem is that just recently my computer has decided to shut down while playing a game or things of that nature. didnt take me more than 2 times to realize that it was the temp of the cpu. but i am completely shocked and was so when i used speedfan and it came up with temp3 reading at 75 degrees celsius. (no not FH, but C) needless to say i havent been doing much on the comp since i found that out. even bios has shown it running at 79C once after a reboot.
i took my comp apart and pieced it back together resetting my bios. it still is running at 75C every time i crank her up now. i have a decent airflow through my case and all my fans are running at full speed. i did use thermal paste when setting the heatsink, although not artic silver. but even then, would that be the difference between my computer running on average of 45C for the past 6 months and now running 30 degrees higher?
anyways i'm stuck right now and need some ideas, tips, hints, suggestions, questions, answers.
btw, my xp is fully updated as are most of my drivers.
absolutely baffled at the 30degree spike that i've got going on now.
