Things wont change after Britix your still be a minority ethnic Race PROTECTED by the British AS PART OF GREAT BRITAIN

All that makes me think of is the minority song from South Park. Wouldn't be Great Britain without the Cornish #BanterIsStrong

In Star Trek folk lore Klingons Are / have Cornish DNA

How Else do you explain the Pasty forehead

I want to play some BF4 but my CPU is idling at 60'c with fans in overdrive

It's warm but not that warm! Something not right there mate.

Ambient in my PC room is 29 degrees my hottest core is 40 degrees and my loop is pretty naff

 

[FreedomEclipse]

my ambient room temp is 32'c - its like the bahama's in here except without the reggae music, jerk chicken & coconuts.

you might have better loop though.

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Mine is idling at 48, room temp is 28. Ive got space for 3 more fans on my rad though, i normally run with just one.


It started to cloud over about an hour ago but i think GTA will have to wait a while cos its still bloody warm.


EDIT

its gonna piss down tonight....

I also do have more cores though - If it was around 16'c here my CPU would idle at 35-37'c

Still sounds a little warm but there are so many variables I suppose.

I don't even know what case you have? Maybe whip the side window off and see if they drop

 

[dorsetknob]

mine running from 32c to 43c across the 6 cores wuck knows what the ambient temp is
greenhouse thermometer says 86f
all i know its ruddy hot >>>>>>beer not getting cold enough fast enough

 

[FreedomEclipse]

took the side panel off and disabled HT. Already seems a lot better at 54'c idle.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

I think i'll take the H105 off tomorrow and give it a good cleaning and re-apply my thermal paste if i can find it.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

I honestly dont know whats wrong with this.... Right now its still idling 52-55'c with the side panel off. Ambience is 29'c, HT is off and ive dropped my OC to see if it makes any difference. Cleaned out the rad but not repasted. Rad is not really hot to the touch. I might slap my H80i back on there tomorrow and see if that makes any difference.

check if pump is working

check if pump is working

Im guessing it still is otherwise it would have been a lot hotter than 52'c

54c idle??? mines idling (albeit with power saving on as always and my window and back door open... no it's not a euphemism...) at around 32c no AIO WC, high end air cooler just what's in my specs, that's not right I don't care what your ambient is, reseat, reapply TIM and check for dust bunnies, airflow is correct etc

 

[ne6togadno]

if your radiator isnt same temp as cpu block then hot water doesnt reach radiator (or at least not fast enough) so either pump is stuck on low rpm or it doesnt run at all

Instead of creating a thread and ask i thought i'd ask it here..can my XFX 650w psu handle GTX970 in SLI? Im just wondering if it be cheaper to change motherboard and get another GTX970 used and SLI them next month or something lol.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Youre cutting it pretty close id say

 

[kurosagi01]

I thought so too but i remember reading a thread of someone asking similar question and some say you could but i wasn't 100% sure myself if it be safe run lol but thanks for response. I'll probably look at upgrading to GTX1070 perhaps when im going to game on PC again.

 

[little cat]

GTX 970 SLI - up to 400W
i5 4590 - 84W(even less)
other 100W
------
584W

the XFX Pro 650W has 53A on +12V or 636W

It should work , but better dont overclock a lot , needs a faster CPU as well

Roughly the figures i've seen from the thread i read on different forum,i doubt i would be overclocking as the last time i did it didn't go down that well after months lol. Lol i may aswell upgrade the whole system if that was the case oh well..we will see what i plan to do..all depends if there will be a game i really need to actually upgrade and if i'll be committing to playing on PC.

Your PC is still capable of good gaming

Yeah it is capable,although i felt bit let down when i tried maxing out rise of the tomb raider and seeing frame rate dipping below 30 when it goes into intense action mode,but looking at reviews it did only get about 40-60fps average on reviews at 1920x1080 so i don't feel as bad now.
