Several times ago I moved to a new place. Here my room is smaller than the one in my old place, so I have to put my PC in the 2nd floor living room. And I thought that made a significant difference.
Previously my PC is inside the room, which is equipped with an AC. Therefore, I can affect my PC's temperature by manipulating the AC. But now, with it's moved to the living room, which there is no AC there, I feel that my PC overheats fast. My city is a well-hot one, you know.
Once I ever played Just Cause ,Company of Heroes, and followed by Stranglehold (graphics setting: the most max) for about 5 hours nonstop and nothing happened. But now I played Call of Duty 4 and World in Conflict (graphics setting: medium) and for both games it sends the overheat warning just in the first 20 minutes. Do you have any suggestions for how to cool my PC down? Maybe buying some extra fans? Or special game cooler?
Oh yeah, my VGA is Radeon X1900XT (it's an old model yeah but I have faith on it, it's still trustworthy after all) and I got 2 fans in the CPU.
