Really Concerned - CPU Temp. Question
Ok just recently my computer started acting up. Anytime I do anything like running virus scan, defrag etc. My fans are constantly running at 100% and the cpu temp is around 85-90c and when it is idling it is around 70-75c. Speed fan has an alarm for my temps and its as follows
--IDLING--
Temp 1 - 65 - 80c Has an alarm
Temp 2 - 30 - 40c Says it needs to be lower
Temp 3 - 25 - 30c Says it needs to be lower
Core - 50 - 60cc has an alarm
I am pretty sure this is bad and I wanna know if it could be bios settings, or hardware.
Im running a
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+, 2611 MHz
Im just really concerned, cause if it is hardware I do have a warranty and can take it in.
I can never finish a virus scan because it always shutsdown about halfway through the scan.
I hate to ask about temp questions like alot of others I just need help
What would be the best suggestion to help cool my PC?
Thanks
Rocky
