the various components of the computer generate a large amount of heat. This is especially true for processors and video cards. To maintain normal temperature in the system unit, you can install an additional case fan, which will circulate air inside the system unit, thereby providing good cooling to the computer components.
Necessary
Computer, additional case cooler, screwdriver
Instructions
Step 1
The place where you can connect a case cooler is on the back of the system unit. Disconnect the computer from the electrical outlet and open the system cover. Then disconnect the mouse, keyboard and other devices from the system unit. Now pay attention to the place to which the cooling unit is attached. There are four screw holes. The cooler must be installed strictly in size for your system unit. Measure what size cooler you need to connect to your system unit. As a rule, this is either a cooler with a size of 8 or 12 centimeters.
Step 2
Now install the device inside the system unit and screw it to the wall of the computer case. You need to install the cooler so that it works to blow out air, that is, blows hot air out of the system unit.
Step 3
After you have screwed the cooler to the system unit, you need to connect the power to it. The interface for connecting power to the cooler is located near the cooler itself on the motherboard. This is the third pin interface. Just plug the wire from the cooler into this interface.
Step 4
Now close the lid of the system unit, connect all previously disconnected devices (mouse, keyboard, etc.), and then turn on the computer. If you think the cooler is noisy, you can make it quieter. To do this, go to the BIOS in the monitoring section. There you can select the operating mode of the computer coolers. If this option is disabled on your motherboard, enable it. The corresponding function is in the BIOS.
Step 5
As a rule, there are three modes of cooler operation available. The first mode is Silent mode, it is the quietest, coolers operate at minimum speed and practically do not generate noise. The second mode is Optimal. Average rotational speed of coolers. The third mode is Performance with the maximum rotational speed of the coolers. Maximum noise level, but also maximum cooling of PC components. Select the desired operating mode and save the settings to BIOS. After restarting the computer, the coolers will work in the mode you selected.
