Hi all,
I'm experiencing some problems with my AS Rock Vision 3D machine.
In my opinion is gets way too hot, the CPU temp according to OC tuner is about 80 degrees (case also feels quite hot)
The load is not very heavy, just Windows 7 ultimate and XBMC
Got some good tips from : http://forums.tweaktown.com/asrock/5...ery-hot-3.html but unfortunately not with good results.
Things i've done to improve temp
- Raised the machine and inch from desk to improve airflow.
- Installed all drivers via CD rom supplied with machine
- Set fanspeed to full in BIOS
I'm no IT pro but it looks like AS rock machines are overclocked by default? (CPU ratio?)
Is it possible to tune it down a bit? as I do not need a very fast machine just for XBMC and Win7
If yes, can you explain how to do this?
Thanks!
