Hi
I have just replace my PSU and added a case fan to my PC after a lot of reboot prob's.
I replaced a 300w 15amp cheap brand with a 550w 20amp tri fan slightly dearer brand PSU. I also added a case fan to the back of my pc, as I didnt have any previously, which is blowing out.
Now...the problem
My CPU seems to be running hotter than before.
I am confused. I am no techie so plain english would be great.
As for the PSU...I bought what I could afford.
Do you have any suggestions?
Please see below for details of system and temps
