smile CPU Coolers, air filters cleaning day

Do not forget, a good clean up of the CPU cooler fins, air intake filters of the case and you gain 4-5 deg on core temps. That is a lot when you run OC. Much more to be gained if your case is really dirty or you are in a very dusty site. I gained nearly 30 deg when I cleaned the rig of my kid that was overheating. Everything was clogged in a pretty compact rig with a powerful graphic board. This was one years ago and after two years of daily use where he had never cleaned it. If you OC, regular cleaning is a must. wink

Re: CPU Coolers, air filters cleaning day


I've tried to resurrect some threads in the past, but some why people rather start a new cuda/badge/points thread once every half year. But enough with this thread stealing ... peace

Re: CPU Coolers, air filters cleaning day

New crunchers come regularly, and it is not sure that they go way back in the past to read old threads. So a short reminder from time to time shouldn't be to much of a nuisance. wink
