And its not revving up really louding like it usually does so not sure if its a temperature problem. any one kow what this is or how to fix it. |
It sounds like a temperature issue, or power supply issue. But could multitude of things. List specs that you know.
Power supply you can check in bios, there's a 5v, 12 v and 3.3v? rail (I think) they shouldn't be more than 10%. Ideally you want to check under load, but then you need to get like OCCT benchmark tool, so don't try that yet. This might be useful, but you don't want to use it you have a heating issue.
