Cpu fan noise

Hello! Today I installed windows 10, and suddenly my cpu fan is running pretty loud. I also changed my video card from a sapphire amd radeon 6950 to a gigabyte amd radeon r7-240. I installed the graphics card with windows 7 and I did not have this fan noise from my cpu fan, but when I upgraded, I check the temperatures and its running at almost 80 degrees celcius without doing absolutely anything. All my drivers are up to date. what could be the problem? thank you in advance, Edgard

  • Finally ready to fix my cpu fan noise - can someone PM?

    So I have a 17" rev a imac (1.8 ghz) - now that my 3 year Apple Care plan is up (a new power supply, 2 new logic boards, and a new hard drive later) - I am ready to do anything to fix the model airplane fan noise/whine coming from the CPU fan. I know when the issue has at the forefront a couple of years ago, there was a housing modification that seemed to work for a lot of people, but I haven't been able to find it again. Could someone PM me with info about it if you know of it?
    Thanks!

  • Satellite L670 cpu fan noise

    As I sit in front of my new L670 laptop, from the left end of the keyboard comes a frequent whirring up and down sound that i'm pretty sure is the CPU fan
    (not the HD).
    How much of this is too much? I find it disturbing.There's no sound like it from my 1 year old Toshiba. The temperature of the room is a constant 20degrees, so it isn't overheating.
    And it does it even when sitting idle with only the Windows7 screen up ie no software activity going on at all.
    I'm worried this is a defective computer. It's 2 days old (to me) - purchased brand new. Still could take it back.
    Grateful for any thoughts.
    L

    I also have a Satellite L670 and have the same fan problem.
    I bought this laptop 1 month ago and the problem was there from the begining. I have already set all the possible parameters to lower power consumption, and I set the CPUs to run between 1% and 50% of their maximum frequency. The problem is still the same. The problem does not come from the user nor the settings, but from the laptop itself.
    IMO the problem is that this laptop refuses to set fan speed at e.g. 25%, 50%, or 75% of its maximum speed, depending on the temperature. The fan is either off (silent) or runs at full speed (too noisy). That is NOT a normal nor optimal behavior and Toshiba should fix it (BIOS update?).
    I tried speedfan but it could not change the fan speed.
    My other laptop, a cheap brand machine which I have been using almost everyday for over 5 years, is much quieter. When using a lot of CPU the fan will indeed make some noise, but that seldom happens in normal use and most of the time the fan runs at low speed and is barely noticeable.
    Any solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated!

  • Why is my iMac's CPU fan making a lot of noise?

    Hello!
    My 27" iMac (late 2009) is making a lot of noise for the last few months. The noise doesnt occur when you start up, but after you do something what is not really intensive for the computer suddenly the CPU fan is going up to about 4000 rpm. I have tried resseting the PRAM and the SMC but it won't help. I have inserted an image so you can take a look for yourself!
    Kind regards,
    Emiel

    Try resetting the iMac SMC and PRAM reset again, this time do each reset 2x. On occasion the first time does not work, but if it continues to be noisy then you probably have a mechanical problem and the fan may need replacing.

  • Hp dv3t 2000 overeheating/fan noise/cpu spikes

    hi, i own a hp dv3t 2000 which is just about six months old. Since around a month ago I have been experiencing increasing fan noise and cpu spikes (100% cpu usage when really i'm not doing much at all)
    i looked into this issue online and learned that it may be a airflow problem, so i wanted to take a look inside.
    here's my frustration - i cannot take out the case because the screws are put in really tight and stripped, making it impossible to unscrew them. after 2 hours of intensive labor trying to unscrew my **bleep** laptop, i am so frustrated and angry that hp cannot bother to use a decent set of screws in their products.
    i wonder if hp will take it in and have it fixed with the one year warranty on the product.

  • My compaq presario desktop hangs after working for while.cpu fan also makes noise.?

    I did clean the dust but still fan makes noise and after starting the system it hangs.say may be after 10 min....what could be the problem ?

    The ST5402FH is circa 2008. Here's how to measure a fan. Although the example is for a 92mm, it's likely your CPU fan is 80mm. Use the guide to learn how to meaure the fan, so you can order it.
    The CPU fan is a 4 pin PWM fan. It's RPM is critical. Order too slow a fan, and your system will not boot. You can use the free HWMonitor to check the current RPM ranges. It will show 2 fans, just disconnect the rear case fan (3 pin) temporarily to determine which is the CPU fan.

  • G72-b57cl notebook mic noise from CPU fan

    g72-b57cl notebook mic noise from CPU fan
    At first I bought this laptop, mic setting was disabled. I enabled this, and then I can't talk through the mic because of noice from CPU fan. how can I solve this problem?

    See, I'm not entirely sure it's the fan.  I can just hear it more easily the closer I get to the fan, which leads me to believe it's somewhere around there.  As in, not the HDD on the other side of the computer, though I suppose it could feasibly be it.  I also think I could have described the noise a bit better.  It seems to sound like the CPU when it's under strain, but...not the same, I can't quite explain it.  The computer will heat up and spin the fan independently of this.  If it is the CPU or GPU, then I don't see what's generating this extra load separate from the nvidia-utils, which I already had earlier.

  • Fan noise after OSX update - Mail above 100% CPU

    Hi,
    I just updated to the latest 10.8.4 version and suddenly Apple Mail is running at 75% till over 100% CPU consumption making the fan running constantly. There is no active usage of Mail, no loading of heavy emails or anything. This problem with Mail never occurred before and it happened directly after the update so there might be a relation. The fan noise stops as soon as I quit Mail.
    What could be the reason?
    Thanks in advance,
    Eric

    Hey,
    problem is solved: I deactivated and again activated my mail accounts by clicking the check boxes in Mail´s preferences menu. Immediately the CPU consumption fell to normal and so did the fan.
    Cheers,
    Eric

  • CPU Fan Making Tons of Noise

    I just got my iMac 24" back from a repair for the LCD screen, and when I bring it home I hear the CPU fan beginning to make a ton of noise when I only have one application (Safari) open. Even after closing it and having nothing open, the fans going nuts. I have an application to tell me how fast the fans in the computer are going, and it's running at 3600 rpm, when normally it only peaks at 1700 when having around 10 applications open at once. So, I took it back to the Apple store and the next day they said they "fixed it." Apparently not, because I just went all the way back there, came all the way back home, and the fan goes right back to 3600 rpm when having nothing open.
    Note: I've NEVER had the fan go above 1700 rpm before taking the computer in for an LCD panel replacement. It's Apple's fault for the fan being broken apparently, and they can't even fix it.
    What do I do now? I just bought my computer in May, can I get a refund for it now? I'm not going back and forth to the Apple store every time they say they "fix" it when they really haven't done anything. I just want my money back, or a brand new computer, and I'll be happy.

    Interest. I got my 24-inch spring 09 iMac back recently from a LCD & logic board replacement and my CPU is also "going insane". The CPU fan is now running at 3600 as soon as I open most any application and then it stays there. Didn't happen before the service. I'm concerned that the speed increase will reduce the fan life, but more than that the noise is killing me. I got this iMac to replace a noisy G5 iMac and until this recent turn I've loved it because it has been so silent. My CPU temps have remained steady around 35 - 40 degrees C so it's not due to higher than normal temps.
    I haven't had time to call Apple about it yet. But hope to do so soon.

  • CPU FAN MAKING RATTLING NOISE - HP Pavilion dv7-3065dx Notebook

    My CPU fan has begun to make a rattling noise.  I have cleaned the vent out with compressed air, but that did not help.  Can anyone help me find the correct part # for the fan and also the correct service manual?  I have found 2 or 3 which seem close, but not sure which one is correct.

  • High Fan Noise and 100% CPU usage by Dock

    My MacBook Pro 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running 10.6.8 just started making a constant fan noise. When I checked the Activity Monitor, it shows my Doc CPU usage as 100%, and my Percent User Usage is about 52% System 2.5% and % Idle is 47%. These numbers are when there is nothing running except Activity Monitor. When I log out and log in as another user, the high fan noise stops, and the CPU usage of the Doc is <1%. I have tried restarting my computer, Rebuilt my Permissions, Emptied the Trash, and Reset the SMC (I think I did it correctly for the MBPro, but the Power Light did not change, and nothing seemed to be any different on my computer.) I think I recently did a recent Apple Update, but I don't know how long ago that was. But it was sometime in the past few days. Does anyone have any idea about what could be going on?
    Thanks,
    Frank

  • Increased fan noise, CPU temp and random fan rpm bursts when using Leopard

    I have a 2.2 Ghz Macbook Pro that I purchased in August 2007. I was running OS X Tiger on my mac till about a week ago when I decided to upgrade to OS X Leopard. Ever since the install, I've been facing numerous problems and issues with the general functionality of the computer. Specifically, the biggest issue relates to increased fan noise and random bursts of increased fan rpm (as monitored using iStat). I did not have any of these issues when using OS X Tiger. Further upgrading to 10.5.1 wasn't helpful either as it did not resolve the issue.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    It may be worth running the Apple Hardware Test, just in case you have a sensor going out or something like that. Sometimes and upgrade will cause an underlying problem to make itself known.
    Did you do an Upgrade as opposed to an Archive and Install or an Erase and Install? If so, there could be some software problem associated with the issues you are having. I tried an Archive and Install, and had so many issues that I went ahead and did an Erase and Install. I've had no problems since.
    Good luck!

  • HP P6203W CPU fan error on startup windows 7 32bit system

    Hi there guys !
    I got this HP computer for about a year now and since changing my broken CPU fan i got a CPU fan error on startup. 
    I have got a HP P6203W
    MOBO: Pegatron Narra5
    Bios: phoenix technologies 5.55 12/08/2009
    I wanted to reduce some noise from my computer by replacing the CPU fan,
    so i changed the original fan for a Noiseblocker-Multiframe M8-S1.
    Now when i start up the computer; the fan slowly turns around , and i then got an CPU fan error before windows fired up. I can get past it by pressing F2 but its annoying to do so every time i start up. Plus I don't think the fan is turning fast enough.
    I already tried checking cpu fan settings in the bios, but i have the blocked bios.
    No fan settings here.
    Do one of you guys have any clue about how to get my CPU fan working properly again or maybe a bios update for my motherboard ?
    Any help would be very much appreciated !
    thanks for your time

    Hello willibrord87,
    There isn't a BIOS update available for your motherboard so that is not going to be an option.
    On some BIOS you have the ability to disable the system from checking the CPU Fan to avoid the error. If it's there it would be under Advanced menu and then a sub menu called Hardware Monitor. HP like many manufacturers lock out settings to avoid users changing settings to much in the BIOS so the system may not have the option. Since you said you already checked the settings I'm assuming we can skip this.
    So it brings us to the motherboard. The CPU fan plug on the motherboard is a 12v connector, the Noiseblocker you have starts a slow ramp up based on this link http://goo.gl/6jsgn it says it's a start voltage of only 5v. I'm thinking that since the CPU fan is not starting up quick enough the motherboard is failing out and giving the CPU fan error. In the end the error is not a real error because once the CPU fan actually works then it's good to go.
    You may want to try a different CPU fan that has a quicker spin up, or at least move that CPU fan to another system to see if it exhibits the same slow spin up.

  • HP TouchSmart 610-1280qd CTO Desktop PC Fan Noise

    Hi,
    Can you tell me if a loud CPU fan is normal for this computer?
    The CPU fan is working very hard and the CPU and GPU are all ~38 degrees Celcius. The bios reports 1100 CPU Fan Speed and 3800 system fan speed. It sounds like my CPU fan is actually spnning faster than that.
    Thanks 
    SOLVED: I spent some time with technical support and they had a model in the lab and confirmed that the loud fan noise is not by design. I returned my Touchsmart and received a new replacement and it is almost silent. I checked the BIOS and the fan speeds are reporting 1100 CPU Fan Speed and 2100 system fan speed with the same low temps above. I believe in my original machine they did not install fans right by swapping the plugins on the motherboard; I do not have solid evidence of this though.
    I hope this help and just know that these machines should be very quiet most of the time other than some low level harddrive access noise.

    Hello sal4303.   I understand your screen is going blank.
    Have you tried changing the settings for how long it takes your monitor to turn off?  Here are the instructions.
    Let me know if this has an effect on your issue.

  • Big fan noise problem: the rear fan won't shut off, the BIOS won't update, systemupdate locks up

    I received new ThinkStaion (oh boy, lots of memory and CPU speed, yay!)
    I unfortunately left the originally installed Vista OS on there.  Very much regretting that as I believe it contributes to the following problems (BIOS).
    So the original problem was that after just a month of using my new ThinkStation, the System Board died, and it had to be replaced. Honestly, all I did was choose the sleep or hibernate option in Vista to shut down.  Afterwards,poof! didn't even get the proper Power lights on the system.  I diagnosed this with the online docs and then sat for a few hours on our tech support line doing all the same things to re-diagnose it.  
    So after the replacement, the rear fan will not shut off. Jet engine noise all day. I went into the system settings and selected "Quiet" for the Fan settings but that did not help.
    Research on this forum resulted in the possibility of a BIOS update fixing the problem.  Comparison to my co-workers systems which arrived at the same time shows this BIOS is woefully out of date, so even if it does not fix the fan issue I want to update it.  However, everything I've tried to do is failing for one reason or another. 
    (The fan issue does need resolution since in one week I will end up sharing an office (first time in many years, thanks IBM for nothing!) so since I don't want us both to have to wear noise cancelling headsets, I'd like to fix this without having to just pull the @#$@ power to the fan. Grrrr. )
    I downloaded what I felt were the appropriate Lenovo apps to update both the BIOS and the serial number but none seem to work properly from the command line in Vista.  One of the two (can't recall which) asks me to reboot and it never actually shuts down. Eternal "Shutting Down" message. Ga!  The other throws some gosh awful

    error 1275 no admin priv - I AM the administrator account, there is no other acct to use!
    Then I decided Vista might be the problem and found sites recommending flashing the BIOS from a bootable USB.  So I started down that path and after burning the wrong version, finally geting the AIK Vista tools installed and to the point of trying to make the USB bootable, it won't allow me to put the OS boot on it.  Ah, for the days when a simple "sys a:" took care of that.
    So, after reformatting the USB and pounding my head in the wall, keyboard, etc. I am at my wit's end.  What to do.  I just want the fan noise to go away.
    This does seem to duplicate other forum messages but I can't get anywhere on this.  Help!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    FYI to all the helpful folks here (and any looking to shut their jet engine off as well): Flashing the BIOS did the trick.
    First I had to find a website with DOS OS files and put those on the USB instead of Vista.  Oldie but a goodie, but at least it booted! No other versions would.
    I had been intending to use the WinPhlash utility that Lenovo supplied with the BIOS update but since I was booting from DOS that was useless. However, I found a DOS version of it and used that instead. Boom baby!  Flashed and rebooted. 
    It did take two boots to get it back to normal (first one gave very alarming messages about no operating system being found but I think it was just a remnant of the reboot that was triggered from the DOS session).  A second boot returned life to normal and blissful silence from the server.  And I was finally able to get the model and serial number back in there to get rid of the bootup message it throws for that too.
    Ahhhhhhh. 
    Thanks to all for the hints - I believe I had gotten the idea of flashing the BIOS to solve this from some other thread I found here.  This is a very nice forum to have bookmarked.
