Gaming PC maintenance– Cooling System Repair. Problems with high temperatures

If your gaming computer is working at high temperatures, multiple factors can allow us to lower the working temperature and thus increase the PC's stability, avoid crashes and restarts, increase the useful life of our components, and increase performance, avoiding thermal throttling.

The most common breakdowns in gaming PC maintenance that we find in our technical service related to the cooling system and high temperatures are the following:

• Very dirty heatsink
• Filthy fan
• Broken, damaged, or inefficient fans
• Poor quality or poorly applied thermal paste
• Leaky liquid cooling system.
• Poorly assembled liquid cooling.
• Water pump failures

ü Gaming PCs suffer more from high temperatures because they have less space and less cooling surface. Thermal throttling occurs more frequently in these computers, with a consequent drop in performance and frames per second (fps). The most important thing for a laptop is proper maintenance, cleaning its interior and changing thermal paste and thermal pads once a year.

ü Gaming Towers have more space and better dissipate the heat generated by the Processor and graphics card. In gaming computers, changing the thermal paste of the Intel or AMD CPU is essential. Removing the dedicated graphics card and changing thermal pads and paste is also very convenient.
