TechSpot - PC Technology News and Analysis

My computer specs are:
Intel Pentium4 660 Hyper Threading 3.6
Gigabyte LGA775
G5 looking Case with (New) Enermax SLi 535w ATX 12v v.2.0
2x 512 ddr20 668MHz Dual channel(With heat sinks)
XFX Geforce 7600GT
2 Dvd drives
320GB
Zalman Copper Heatsink/Fan - 92 mm
2 80 mm Fans(1 front, 1 back)
2 120 mm Fans(1 side, 1 front)
2 PSU built in Fans
1 PCI slot Air blower

I use MBM5, Tune5, Sandra Lite 2005, Speed Fan 4.28 and the Geforce Program

Geforce Program says my 7600GT is running at 52 C (was at 57 before 2 120 mm fans)
MBM5 Tune5 and Sandra Lite 2005, SpeedFan 4.28 say my main board is running at 76 C highest 78 C, lowest 75. SpeedFan says my HD is runnig at 32 C.
Uhh.. I have no clue what this is happening, I mean even when I just turn on my computer it says its at 76 C - 52 C like what the hell is going on here. All the programs have alarms and they tell me they are over heated and 76 C is double the highest temp in the summer over here. There is logically no way anything on my computer will be runing at 76 C ESPECIALY if it was just turned on. Like Woah??! lol I'm gonig to run my computer for hours no matter what these programs say, but i wouldl ike to know if i can fix this problem.

I would like to Thank Every One That Ever Posted, Spent Their Vaulble Time And Helped Me. Oh yah MBM5 Sys Info:

Maybe those programmes aren`t compatible with your mobo`s sensors. Check your temps in bios.

Maybe try the free Everest programme from HERE.

The only other possibilities are, a faulty mobo sensor, or your temps really are that high, which I doubt.

i had overheating problem as well... i tried everything and it didnt work, until this: (might not work for you, but give it a shot)

open your case, take out your CPU fan and clean it up (and everything else, if you want to). dust is a killer factor. also, if direct sunlight hits your computer during the day, that can be a factor as well.

hope this helps
