ninetyfuckingfour!!!!! something aint right son. Has it always done it ? if so, my $ is on the TIM was not applied correctly or they didn't remove a sticker on the HSF,, or there is a shit tonne of dust in the heat sink. Crack the case open and look at the cooler, see if there is lots of dust

if there is lots of dust on the cooler, with the system off...... you should be able to scrape away the dust blocking the fins with a small screw driver or sturdy paint brush. don't go to town on the system if you don't know what your doing, you might break something

ps, this isn't dusty

It hasn't always done it.

I had the problem once for about 2 weeks last September (ive had the PC since Jan 2011). Then didnt hear from it again till about 2 weeks ago.

I clean the dust out of my PC regularly. No excessive dust, but there might be some that i cant see.

$2600 worth of tickets have arrived.

You spent $2600 on tickets.

for dust to be an issue, it needs to be so full of dirt the air never contacts the cooler.. as in fairly much blocked.. if its not like that, look elsewhere.. you might want to tell them its hitting 90+ deg cos that shits Posted Image

Throw in the greens, green peace, unhcr, save the forking children and I've well and truly hit my limit for the number of fuckstains wanting me to sign something or give money. Seriously cubts, right off.

Well, I just cleared up a Farkload of crap on my PC.
Hovering 34-37 atm.

But yeah, it only REALLY happens when its doing quite a lot (rendering a 1080p uncompressed file etc).

Praying it doesnt happen again.

That's not going to help with Adam's signal problem.

My work laptop was hovering around 94 the other day, forked.

I changed a few power settings and forced the fan on max. Hovers around 70 on the CPU. Cuntsfucked.

FORK THAT SHIT!!!!

Just had the longest drive home of my life, and I'm still rushing with adrenaline!

About 10km of water sheets, plus hail, plus highway river.

Think bargo just missed it, but picton probably got prawned! And it's lower than bargo!
