CPU Fan is Loud, but the Temperature is OK (I Think)
The problem I am facing is the CPU fan rotates with high speed even though the CPU usage is very low, less than 10%.
I even cleaned the Dust off the Fan, I replaced the Thermal Material on the Processor. Installed an Extra Fan.
Nothing seems to Work.
Please Help.
You mention "Speedfan" as a tag - what's that reporting as to your CPU temps? – Phoshi – 2010-03-06T13:59:15.933
1@Phoshi - maybe he didn't know it was an application. Just thought it was a tag for "fan speed". – Rook – 2010-03-06T14:39:11.733
Even though this may seem to be a h/w problem, it would be nice to know the O/S. Even different generations of Windows have different abilities to interact with the hardware. Also, what kind of system or motherboard do you have? If Windows, are there chipset drivers and are they loaded? Running an nVidia or ATi chipset without drivers will lead to many issues. – kmarsh – 2010-06-10T17:01:09.783
Is this a new problem for this computer? That is, did the fan slow down under low CPU load in the past? – coneslayer – 2010-06-10T18:03:59.663
