Those who work with a computer notice that noise starts to appear over time. Usually it is issued by a cooler. Many people, when such a noise appears, throw out the old computer and buy a new one. Do not rush to do this! The noise problem can be solved with a little blood.
Necessary
- - a can of compressed air,
- - a set of brushes.
Instructions
Step 1
So, if your personal computer starts to make extraneous noises, then it's time to pay some attention to it. First, try to identify the source of the noise. If you hear sharp clicks, then this is a problem with your hard drive or drive. In this case, they must be replaced. If the usual noise of a running computer has become much more noticeable, then the problem lies in the cooling system.
Step 2
First, pay attention to the power supply. If you have an old sample, then you need to replace it. When choosing a new power supply, pay attention to the presence of an on and off button on it. It is also necessary to have a wire mesh that minimally obstructs the passage of air currents. Newer models of power supplies usually have an automatic speed controller. That is, the rotation speed is adjusted depending on the temperature of the system. Remember that fans need to be periodically cleaned of accumulated dust.
Step 3
The computer's video card also has a cooler, which is responsible for cooling it. If you work in graphic editors or play, then the video card is experiencing considerable stress. Check the performance of the video card capacitors. Replace them with new ones if necessary. Monitor the condition of the fan. Clean it promptly. Also clean the radiator. A lot of dust usually accumulates in it.
Step 4
Use special utilities that allow you to customize the operation of the cooling system. For example, turn the fans on and off on a schedule. However, you need to be very careful here, since the slightest forgetfulness can lead to an overheated or burned out computer.
