A personal computer, a laptop, and even a telephone are made up of many parts. Some of them tend to generate heat during operation. In turn, various cooling systems are installed on the devices, which should cool the components in order to avoid damage from overheating. But if the processor overheats, what should I do? How to identify overheating and correct the situation? Here we will talk about the main causes of high CPU temperatures and how to fix them.

Symptoms of overheating are usually:

• Involuntary shutdown.
• Short or long freezes.
• Loud fan noise.

How to check cpu temperature in bios

You can check which elements are heated in the computer using programs or through BIOS. In the second case, you can find out the temperature, and how much the processor overheats, if such a function is, of course, present in the BIOS firmware. The disadvantage of this method is the inability to check if there is overheating under load: when watching a heavy HD video, during games or during a stress test.

• When restarting the computer, you need to repeatedly press the key Delete or F2, F10 to enter the BIOS (the key, depending on the model, may differ).
• The period when the key will work is very short, this can be done when checking POST, usually the desired key will be displayed on the same screen with the manufacturer's logo in the form of a line: Press DEL to run Setup.

• The BIOS menu in different models is different, and in older versions of motherboards it is mostly English. In more modern BIOS motherboards (only now it's already UEFI) you can find a Russian interface, but if the BIOS language of your motherboard is English, then you should look for the temperature sensor in the H / W Monitor, Status, PC Health sections.

CPU temperature monitoring

You can find out how much the computer processor overheats with the help of third-party software, and monitor the status of your PC in any conditions. There are a lot of similar software on the Internet, but there are several pretty good programs: AIDA64 and Everest - two programs that can rightfully be called twin sisters. The programs are created by the same developer, have an almost identical menu and have almost the same functions. They are paid, but they have a free trial period of 30 days, when the program can be used without restrictions.

• After downloading and installing one of the above programs on your computer, you should run it.
• In the window, select the "Computer" section, and in the subgraph - "Sensor". In the central part of the working window, the current temperature of the processor cores and some other parameters will be displayed, but we are interested in the temperature.

Each processor has its own temperature limit, set by the manufacturer, at which the computer will shut down in case of overheating. Normally, for a processor in idle mode, the temperature should be about 35-45 ° C, and under load (during a game or stress test) up to 70 ° C. Exceeding these values ​​can lead to irreparable consequences. In addition, when the processor overheats, the motherboard heats up along with other elements that can fail.

Another good free simple program is GPU-Z. The utility shows the temperature of the processor and other elements, as well as some other characteristics in real time.

Dust is the worst enemy of electronic devices

Initially, you need to determine why the processor on the computer is overheating. The main and primary cause of overheating of the processor and other components of a computer or laptop is dust. It is everywhere and everywhere, enters the computer case through the slots in the system unit, which serve to circulate air for cooling purposes. Fans suck in dust along with air, which then settles on all components, eventually growing into a fairly decent layer. Dust interferes with heat transfer and can even cause a short circuit. Therefore, the system unit of a personal computer and a laptop need to be cleaned periodically.

Cleaning your computer from dust

Cleaning your PC from dust is quite simple. The side cover of the system unit is attached to the rear case with two bolts (in most cases). It's easy to take it off. Having opened the system unit, you can see how dusty it is, but do not flatter yourself, even a very small layer of dust can cause overheating. Therefore, you should arm yourself with a simple set of tools, which includes a brush (there should be no metal elements on the brush to avoid short circuits from static electricity), a can of compressed air, napkins, and a vacuum cleaner.

Before opening the system unit, you should remember, but it is better to draw up a diagram of where and what to connect, since incorrect connection of the plugs can damage the computer. After disconnecting all the wires, before further action, you need to remove static electricity from the body: for this, just wash your hands in running water. Static electricity, if touched on parts or the computer case, can cause a short circuit and, as a result, damage to the computer. After turning off the device, it needs to be allowed to stand for about 5 minutes so that the residual charge is gone.

Now you can clean. The main dust is concentrated around rotating elements, on coolers and in radiators below them. Use a vacuum cleaner to gently remove any dust that has accumulated around the processor and other easily accessible areas. It is worth noting that for a vacuum cleaner, you should use a nozzle with a narrowed nose (it is easier to collect dust with it). And also it is desirable that it be rubber. You need to remove dust with a vacuum cleaner very carefully around small parts on the motherboard, they can be accidentally broken off, and then the computer will not turn on at all. Use a can of compressed air to blow dust out of hard-to-reach places where it is difficult to reach with a brush and a vacuum cleaner.

Replacing thermal paste

After cleaning the system unit from dust, it is advisable to immediately change the thermal paste. If the computer is more than 2 years old and has never been opened, then the thermal paste that provides close contact between the processor and the cooling radiator has most likely dried up and does not provide proper cooling. Because of this, the processor overheats and the computer turns off.

• We remove the radiator together with the cooler (usually they are attached with several easily detachable clips), the fan should also be disconnected from the motherboard.
• Remove the remnants of the old thermal paste from the processor and heatsink with napkins. And apply a new thin layer.

It is important not to overdo it here - after all, the thermal conductivity of even the most expensive thermal paste is much worse than the thermal conductivity of the cheapest heatsink, so a fairly solid layer of thermal paste will play a cruel joke and make the processor heat up even more due to poor heat transfer. You need just a drop of thermal paste, literally from a match head. It should be evenly applied and smeared over the processor platform (you can use an old plastic card).

Next, firmly press the radiator, setting it to its original position, and snap the fasteners. The radiator should not hang or stagger. After dusting and replacing the thermal paste, you should connect all peripheral devices, as well as all I / O chips. After that, you can turn on the computer for verification.

motherboard overheating

In the computer, it may not be the processor itself that is still warm, but the sensor. It looks like the processor is overheating. If the cleaning is done, the thermal paste is replaced, and the indicators are still too high, then you can install additional cooling in the system unit to blow the motherboard. Or install a more powerful cooler on the processor (the old one may not be able to cope with the task of cooling).

Cleaning a laptop from dust

When the processor on a laptop overheats due to heavy dust, everything is somewhat more complicated here. And if you yourself have never disassembled a laptop for cleaning, then you should provide it to a service center. Because the bolts on the back cover of the laptop have different lengths, respectively, unscrewing them, you should simultaneously draw up a diagram. Inside the laptop, everything is much smaller and more compact than in the system unit and there is a chance to damage something. The cooling system also differs in different laptop models.

Tip: You should clean your laptop or computer at least once every two years. With the same frequency, you need to change the thermal paste. If there are animals in the house, then cleaning should be carried out at least once a year, and preferably every six months, since the villi of animal hair also get into the system unit along with dust.

It is usually hot in the summer, and sometimes the processor on the laptop overheats due to external factors. What to do in this case, how to cool it? The cooling system sucks in air from the outside, and if the room is already hot on a hot summer day, then hot air will not help much. To cool the laptop, you can use external stands with cooling elements. This will also reduce the processor, avoiding the damaging effects of high temperatures on them.

Computer overheating due to virus infection

Overheating of the processor can cause a virus infection. It is worth scanning for viruses and it is advisable to do this either with a cloud-based antivirus, or install another one, after removing the stationary antivirus. Malicious code on your computer may have already infected your antivirus program or disguised itself so that your antivirus does not see the infection.

Svchost.exe loads the system

You need to check if svchost.exe is loading the system - this is an auxiliary process for services loaded from dynamic libraries. But sometimes, under the guise of a system process, a virus or malicious code can be hidden that continuously launches a system process, loading the CPU, leading to overheating.

• To determine if this is a virus infection, you need to enter the "Task Manager" - Ctrl + alt + Del.
• Open the "Processes" tab and see if the svchost.exe process loads 100% with a single core processor, 50% with a dual core and 25% with 4 cores. If there is one, then this is the culprit. Because of it, the processor overheats, which means that it should be disabled.
• The normal Svchost.exe process will be active under the username SYSTEM or Network Service. If this process is active under the account name, then most likely it is a virus. After disabling the loading process, you should scan and install a new stationary antivirus.

Driver conflict

The processor is overheating due to a software conflict, what should I do?

• Just as in the case of the Svchost.exe process, you need to enter the "Task Manager", in idle mode, the "System Idle" process should occupy about 99%. If this is not the case, and some other process eats up some of the resources, most likely this is conflicting software. Perhaps the driver or some software is not installed correctly.
• If the processor overheats and the computer turns off due to conflicting software, what should I do? In this case, you need to determine which program this process belongs to and reinstall it. Very often, drivers installed with the operating system in pirated assemblies conflict. There is only one piece of advice here - use licensed software and avoid various hacked, pirated programs and operating systems. When using unlicensed software, in particular with regard to operating systems, there is a high probability of errors in downloading and installing automatic updates. The result is conflict and overheating.

The phone is heating up

You can often observe how the processor on the phone overheats. This is most often associated with a large number of simultaneously running processes, applications, during a long conversation or while charging. Overheating of the phone during charging most often occurs due to a poor-quality charger or a battery that has already expired or is damaged, as well as if the connector contacts are dirty. To cool the phone, you should download applications that monitor and warn in a timely manner of a critical temperature.

Summing up

Overheating problems, although not always obvious, and often difficult to determine, are resolved very quickly in most cases, with the exception of a breakdown in the cooling system, which requires replacement of components or the entire system as a whole. Now you know why the processor is overheating and how to fix it. Healthy PC to you, easy work and pleasant pastime at your favorite computer!

When using a computer or laptop, over time, the user will learn what can happen if the device starts to overheat. The periodic increase in temperature negatively affects the components of the computer, which means that it will work very slowly. So that the problem does not develop into a catastrophic one, I will give some tips that will help you cool the computer components, thereby preventing overheating.

If everything is done correctly, then the computer will work for a very long time. Everything needs to be taken care of, and computers are no exception.

Checking computer temperature

First you need to find out. To do this, you can use many useful utilities, or look through the BIOS. I myself use the AIDA64 utility, but you can use the HWMonitor tool. The program also shows the voltage. This is very important if you are overclocking.

So, the program shows the temperature of the central processor, video card, hard drives, these are the main components that we need to know about. The values ​​will not be constant, so they will constantly change in the program.

If you notice that the temperature of many components is very high, then you should immediately take measures to reduce it. You can find out the optimal temperature for your components on the Internet; for a processor, it can be either 40 or 80 degrees. But it's better to be safe and check. If the components overheat in idle mode, this is very bad.

It should be noted that you should already have at least one or two coolers for cooling. For the price, they are not expensive, but they can cool every part of the system unit well. If one of the coolers fails, replace it immediately, don't wait for something else to break ahead of time.

Optimal and affordable methods

Among the easily accessible methods I refer to the following.

I already had an article in which I said how important other garbage is. Since dust clogs many small air holes, it can cause your computer to run slowly and overheat. Complete cleaning of the system unit should be carried out several times a year.

Before starting this process, you need to carefully read the following rules:

1. Disconnect the computer from power. Pull out the power cable completely and wait a bit;
2. Before starting work, you need to rid yourself of static electricity, for this you can touch the battery in your apartment;
3. Place the system unit on a flat and smooth surface, do not use carpets. We do not clean using woolen items.

What components can be used to clean the dust?

• Alcohol;
• Fabric, preferably microfibre;
• Vacuum cleaner or compressed air bottle.

If you have all the means to clean your computer from dust, you can proceed to the process itself. First you need to unscrew each computer fan and clean them thoroughly with a rag and alcohol. Hard-to-reach places can be reached with a small brush or brush. You can use a can of compressed air to blow out places like the power supply.

To completely clean dust and dirt from the computer, you need to practically completely disassemble it. By the way, in no case do not use water if you do not want the components to oxidize.

After carrying out such a procedure, the computer can already exhale a little.

Increasing fan speed

The default fan speed may not be enough, and this will cause overheating. With the help of special software, you can increase the speed of coolers. This is where SpeedFan can help you.

A similar operation can be carried out using the MSI Afterburner utility, which also has the ability to increase the speed of coolers.

Many users randomly arrange cables in the system unit, and this can cause dust accumulation and poor air circulation inside the case. You must arrange all cables correctly and compactly so that there is a lot of free space, they should not be located opposite the airflow of the fans.

If you have little experience in this matter, then you can entrust the work to specialists, or turn to a knowledgeable friend.

Proper ventilation

In order for the “insides” of the computer to remain cool, you need to maintain proper air circulation inside the case. As you understand, the fan can be located in different orientations. You need to understand in which direction the airflow of the fans is moving.

As a general rule, warm air must go outside and outside air, i.e. cold air, must go in. Just check the operation of the fans and position them correctly.

Complicated and paid ways to cool your computer

Now let's move on to the options when you need to invest a little money. Of course, this will not necessarily be expensive, but many users will decide to fix the problem themselves. But this is their right.

You can use these methods only if all that is described above does not help. I must say right away that one of the paid methods is to contact a service center, where for a certain fee everything will be completely cleaned and put in order for you, but there are cheaper options.

After using the computer for a long time, for example, two or three years, the processor thermal paste dries up, which means that the thermal conductivity is greatly impaired. The thermal paste is located between the CPU and heatsink cooler, which helps the latter to draw heat away from the CPU. I will not write here how to properly apply thermal paste to the processor, as I have already talked about this in.

Additional fans

At the beginning of the article, I already talked about fans, but did not mention that you can buy larger coolers. Before that, of course, you need to carefully examine the case and find holes for attaching additional coolers, if there are any, then we buy and do not spare money.

You could also install liquid cooling, but this system is more expensive and difficult to install. As a rule, such cooling is used only in systems where the components work at full capacity, for example, a computer for games or video editing.

conclusions

So, now you know what you need to do to cool your PC:

• Purchasing additional coolers
• Software fan speed boost

Using all these tips, you will not cool your computer badly. Even if it does not overheat, it is necessary to maintain cleanliness and order in the system unit.

Additional tips from you readers are accepted in the comments, maybe you have something to offer on the topic of computer cooling?

Overheating of the computer or its individual components can cause various problems and malfunctions of the system: the OS periodically slows down, freezes, strange graphic artifacts are displayed on the screen, unplanned reboots occur, which may be accompanied by a blue screen of death.

In most cases, the symptoms listed above indicate that the computer is overheating. To solve this problem, the user first needs to understand what is causing the overheating.

Causes of overheating of the computer and their elimination

Gone are the days when overheating of one or another component led, in most cases, to its ignition. However, overheating is still one of the main reasons for reducing the life and failure of the components of the system unit. There can be several reasons, here are some.

Pollution of the system unit.

Pollution of the system unit is perhaps the most common cause of overheating of components. Cooling systems are a real magnet for dust, which settles on them in an impressive layer and interferes with normal heat dissipation.

This is especially true for budget cases, which are almost completely devoid of dust protection in the form of special filters.

Not all users are in a hurry to disassemble their system unit, wipe it from dust and clean the cooling system. However, it is simply necessary to do this, because such a simple procedure will significantly reduce the risk of failure of any component due to overheating.

The cleaning procedure is quite simple.

After opening the cover of the system unit, remove the following components - a video card, a processor with a cooler and case fans, disconnect the wires.
Remove dust from the remaining hardware in the block. A small brush is best suited for this purpose, with which you can easily remove the accumulated debris from the corners.
Radiators are easiest to clean with a can of compressed air (you can buy these at almost any computer store).
After making sure that all surfaces are free of dust, you can return all components to their place.

This procedure is best done outdoors or, for example, on a balcony.

Attention! It is undesirable to use a conventional vacuum cleaner to clean the body. In any case, in blowing mode. Computer components are quite fragile. It is very easy to cause mechanical damage, which is fraught with additional costs.

Drying out or improper application of thermal paste.

Drying of thermal paste leads to the fact that the processor starts to heat up more often, its clock frequency automatically decreases, which means that performance drops. An excess of paste is not desirable. If you smear the surfaces of a heat sink or processor especially generously, then you can achieve the opposite effect - heat transfer will decrease.

Proper application of thermal paste means spreading it evenly with a thin layer. You can do this with your finger (as shown in the picture), but a plastic card (for example, a business card) is best for the implementation of the task.

When the paste is applied, press it against the processor, and remove the residue that has crawled out on the sides. Everything, nothing complicated. Which thermal paste is better to choose and how to change it is described in one of the previous articles. I recommend that you familiarize yourself with it.

Insufficient capacity of cooling systems.

A typical situation - a person buys a new computer in autumn or winter, uses it for a while, but then, when the hot season comes, problems with overheating suddenly begin. Most often, processors with standard (included in the basic kit) cooling overheat.

A successful (efficient) boxed cooler is quite rare. Now there are quite a lot of high-quality and inexpensive (600-800 rubles) solutions on the market from DeepCool, Zalman and other manufacturers.

If you can't upgrade right away, take simple steps to reduce overheating. After all, it is capable of harming components, which will lead to even greater expenses.

1) Install the SpeedFan program on your computer, which allows you to monitor the temperature in the system unit, as well as control the fan speed. If the coolers are only running at half their capacity, increase the speed.
2) Work at the computer with the cover of the system unit open - this will improve the flow of cold air and the return of hot air.
3) Remove the system unit from possible heat sources (battery, sun).
3) Reduce settings in resource-intensive applications and games. All these high quality shadows, particles and detailed models put a lot of stress on the hardware. Graphics cards and processors loaded at 100% generate much more heat.

The quality of cooling is affected not only by the cooling system itself, but also by the correct location in the system unit. Make sure the system unit coolers are installed correctly. As a rule, 1-2 fans are installed on the front wall of the case to blow in a cold stream, on the back and top covers - to blow out warm air.

Overclocking of components and incorrect BIOS settings.

Very often, lovers of using the “untapped potential” of their hardware become victims of overheating. They go to Overclockers or other similar forums, read reports written by professionals in this field, and then try to repeat. Usually, it all comes down to an uncontrolled increase in the processor multiplier. They are unlikely to feel a significant increase in performance, but overheating is easy.

Fortunately, modern processors and video cards are equipped with overheating protection mechanisms, so it will be quite difficult to burn them. When the temperature reaches a critical point, the computer will automatically restart.

To return it to a working state, you will have to roll back the changes. The BIOS has a special button for this, which allows you to return to the default settings.

Errors in the selection of components.

When deciding to assemble your own system, remember an important condition - it must be balanced. You can use special online assemblers (PC Configurator) and calculators for calculating the required power of the power supply.

As an example:
— http://www.regard.ru/cfg
— https://ru.msi.com/calculator

No need to save on such important parts as the motherboard and a good power supply. A frankly budget motherboard and a weak power supply may well lead to regular overheating of components with their subsequent failure.

Any specialist knows how big the difference between the declared power of the power supply and its real value can be. 500W of an unknown Chinese company is by no means equal to 500W of a trusted manufacturer. Otherwise, there would be no two-fold spread in the price.

Conclusion

Overheating of a computer and its components is a rather serious problem, which at best will remind you of itself at the time of slowing down the system, at worst it will disable expensive hardware.

The best way to deal with overheating is to prevent it. If you assemble a competent and balanced system, clean the system unit and thermal paste in a timely manner, and do not rush into experiments with overclocking, then you can protect your PC from slowdowns, reboots, blue screens and other troubles for a long time.

Today I will tell you about what to do if your computer has become very hot. Sometimes the result of overheating is the constant freezes of the computer, and sometimes even shutdown. The three main computer components that can overheat are CPU, video card and power unit. The reason for overheating of these components in 90% of cases is commonplace -

So your computer gets very hot or even shuts down due to overheating? What to do?

Step 1. Determine which device is overheating.

To do this, you need to install a test program - for these purposes, the SpeedFan utility is best suited. Also, as an option, you can use programs such as Aida32, Aida64, Everest or SiSoft Sandra - they also have a section for displaying information about computer temperature sensors.

Having determined the overheating device, proceed to step 2.

Step 2. We collect the necessary tool.

To clean your computer, you will need a Phillips screwdriver, a flat-bladed screwdriver, wet wipes with a medium blade, and a can of compressed air to blow out the dust:

As an alternative to an air canister, you can use an old vacuum cleaner that can blow out or a car compressor. True, you will have to tinker with the latter, since it works from the car on-board network.
If the processor is overheating- necessary buy also thermal grease KPT-8 or ALSIL-3.

Step 3. Cleaning.

If your computer's power supply is overheating:

1. Remove the cover of the computer system unit.
2. Disconnect the power cables of the unit from the components. For some modern power supplies, the cables can simply be disconnected from the power supply itself - this is even more convenient.
3. Unscrew the screws securing the power supply and remove it.
4. We disassemble the power supply.
5. Using a can of air, purge the power supply. Attention, if there is a lot of dust inside, it is better to take the power supply to the balcony or stairwell and blow it out there.
6. We collect everything in the reverse order and check the work.

If the processor is overheating:
1. Remove the cover of the computer system unit.
2. Using a screwdriver, remove the cooler - the fan that cools the processor and the heatsink under it. Do this very carefully and carefully so that the screwdriver does not damage the system board or get hurt.
The fan blades should be cleaned of dust with a damp cloth or cloth.
If the fan is noisy during operation, you can lubricate it with engine oil. To do this, peel off the sticker and put some oil into the bearing:

After that, return the sticker to its place.
Using a can of air, blow out the cooler radiator:

3. Using wet wipes, wipe off the remaining thermal paste from the processor and apply a thin layer again.
4. We collect everything in the reverse order and check the work.
If after that the processor still overheats, try replacing the cooler altogether.

If the graphics card is overheating:
To clean the video card cooling system, most often, you don’t even need to remove it - just blow the cooling fan and the video card heatsink from a can of air:

If the video card is bulky and with a large cooling system, then in this case, of course, it is better to dismantle it and blow it through, and then put it back in place.
Be sure to check that the fan on the video card is working. If it doesn't work, you'll have to buy a new one.

Advice ! In order for the system unit to have normal air circulation, be sure to install 2 fans in the regular places of the case - one for intake, one for exhaust.

Every second personal computer starts to “fail” due to overheating of components. And every third one fails for this reason. But in most cases this does not happen immediately and the user has enough time to fix the problem at an early stage.

To find out why a computer is overheating, it is important to understand how its cooling system works and to recognize the signs of an increase in temperature. You will also learn how to monitor system sensors and fix the root causes of overheating yourself.

PC cooling system - briefly about the main

Proper organization of computer ventilation is the key to its stable operation. Most of all, the processor, video card and motherboard heat up during operation. They are necessarily equipped with cooling radiators (passive system). To enhance the effect, a fan is attached to the radiator, and this design is already called a cooler. It quickly removes heat from the hot element, but in the absence of fans on the case, the efficiency of the cooler is significantly reduced.

The following picture shows a diagram of optimal air circulation in the system unit:

The blue arrows indicate the inflow of fresh air from the front, side and bottom of the case (the fans work for suction). Red depicts the release of hot streams using the propellers of the power supply, the back and top of the system unit.

Symptoms of critical computer temperature

Overheating of components is always accompanied by characteristic signs. As the masters say: "The most common complaint of users is the slowdown of the system." We list the most common signals sent by the machine:

• The computer "slows down", i.e. the speed of the programs is reduced;
• Restarting or shutting down the operating system;
• There is a beep from the unit (if the motherboard is equipped with a speaker);
• Increased fan noise
• Distortions (artifacts) appear in the picture.

All of the above symptoms are also characteristic of a viral attack. Therefore, it will not be superfluous to check the system for the absence of Trojans.

How to eliminate the causes of overheating?

If no viruses are found, then most likely the system is overheating and it is necessary to inspect its internal components. The most common cause of PC failures is accumulated dust. It settles on the walls of the case, electronic boards and cooler radiators. Therefore, all computer parts require regular cleaning (at least once every six months).

To clean the insides, it is best to use a medium-sized brush and a vacuum cleaner. With a brush, dust is brushed off from all components, and the removed dirt is removed with a vacuum cleaner. After the cleaning is finished, start the PC and evaluate its performance.

If the condition does not improve, check the operation of the fans by turning on the computer with the side cover open. If a defective fan is found, replace it with a new one.

The next reason is the loosening of the cooler mounting. Gently shake all heatsinks to identify this problem. A clear play will indicate that you need to reinstall the cooler.

Dried thermal paste can also lead to overheating. When installing coolers, a special heat-conducting compound is applied to the parts to be joined. Over time, it dries up, losing its properties. Therefore, after 3-4 years of continuous operation, it is recommended to check or replace the paste.

If the elimination of these causes does not solve the problem, contact the service center for more detailed diagnostics.

Monitoring system sensors with AIDA software

According to online surveys, 70% of users do not know about the existence of programs for monitoring PC temperature. But the timely detection of the source of overheating prevents the breakdown of expensive components. Consider the principle of operation of such programs using the AIDA 64 application as an example.

After starting the utility, in the start window, click the Computer icon:

And after a short system scan, we evaluate the readings:

From top to bottom, the temperature of the motherboard, central processing unit (CPU), video card (GPU Diode), and hard drive is displayed. The next block displays information about the fan speed.

The following indicators are considered normal temperatures:

• CPU. Problems mostly start at 60 degrees and above. Normal is 35 - 40 in idle time.

• Motherboard. Ideally, it should not exceed 35 degrees. Tolerable indicators are 40 - 45.

• Video card. It depends on the power of the video card itself. For modern ones, an indicator of 65 - 75 is quite normal with many hours of work. For the old, this is a critical indicator.

• HDD. 30 - 35 degrees is normal.

Conclusion
In the absence of proper care, any computer will sooner or later face the problem of overheating. Therefore, try to carry out regular preventive inspection and cleaning of components, as well as monitor the condition of the sensors. And then the resource of your PC will increase significantly, and the system will delight you with stability for many years.
