Hello
I bought my computer beginning of 2012. Around November it started overheating and I sent it back in and they 'repaired' it. Whatever they did didn't help and it kept on overheating.
This means I never close the side of my PC anymore, and during warmer days I'll put another fan close by blowing into my case.
I'm doing this at the moment, but can barely play 5 minutes of Bioshock before my CPU reaches 85 degrees and my pc shuts down.
There's not too much dust in my case...
Why? All my fans are working - CPU fan running at 3300 rpm, chassis fan 1 running at 1000 rpm and chassis fan 2 running at 950 rpm.
Here's my specs:
