Re: Over heating & continous Rebooting

That graphics card suggests using a 500W PSU. If i were you i would get at least a 550 or a 600W. you can never have too many watts. lol

But the CPU over heating doesn't sound like a PSU problem. Are you using the factory Heat sync that came with the CPU?

Re: Over heating & continous Rebooting

Thank for replying
as per you suggested i replaced the power supply unit with same watt (400W) now the continues rebooting problem is no more but yet processor fan spins too fast and mine PSU gets too hot
  • Recently insttalled Nvidia Gforce series card into my PC
  • It shows GPU temperature 52 Degree Celsius
    Should i bring higher wattage PSU or anything else can solve this problem
As jermaghs07 noted the PSU recommended for that graphics card is at least 500W and I would follow his suggestion of putting at least a 600W or higher in the machine.

The CPU fan spinning too fast could be a couple of things...do you have the fan plugged into the correct motherboard fan output. There should be one labeled CPU and maybe a couple others labeled system. The heat sink may be too small for the CPU you are using (is it a factory CPU heat sink?). Did you use any heat sink compound (Arctic Silver, etc...) on the CPU when installing it?

The GPU getting too hot can be a number of things as well. If it is a passively cooled GPU you may consider replacing the passive heat sink with a fan cooled heat sink. If you replace it...use some heat sink compound.

As many others have mentioned in this thread...make sure you have good airflow through the system. If you get a new PSU make sure it is actively cooled as well. Find one that has two fans in it.

To get help quicker you might want to give your full system specs up front with model numbers which would include all parts in the system. It is difficult to give accurate help without this information.

Hi
First of all I will thanks to all of you guys for helping me on this issue
Finally i think i have replace PSU to higher (600W) one
second allow more air supply in to case
the current heat sink is a factory heatsink
Pls tell me What is GPU temprature? & it related to what?

Thanks

Hi

Thanks
GPU =Graphic processing unit , . so that makes it related to the temp of you video cards main chip!the one with the heatsinc or heatsinc,and fan.

Graphics Processing Unit...basically it's a CPU for your graphics card but specialized for processing graphics. Depending on the graphics card...temps of 45 to 70 degrees Celsius are fairly normal.

Is yours running at 52C under load or idle? If idle...what is it under load?
