So, for anyone who is curious, the culprit was unfortunately my poor U12S simply not being up to the task. My CPU is indeed OC'd (the lazy, sloppy way via BIOS) due to frequently playing poorly optimized CPU heavy games, which obviously isn't helping. I don't particularly feel like turning the OC of...

I have a Noctua U12S 120mm single fan tower on the CPU Can you add a second fan to that cooler and run it as push/pull ? I took a quick look at Amazon and it looked like it might be possible ? Yes, the U12S can have a second fan installed on the backside of the fin stack, which I didn't know until ...

Does anyone have any experience with the U12A? After some rough measurements, I'm reasonably certain I won't be able to fit a bigger dual tower like the D14/15 or PH-TC14PE in the case, but from everything I've read the U12A seems like a pretty significant (if not inexpensive) upgrade. Salient other...

That's actually a relatively small cooler for that CPU. Are you running a super compact build? I'd put at least a DH-14 dual tower on that cpu. Or a small 120mm all in one liquid cooler or a 240mm if there's room in your case. I would pull that cooler off and check your tim spread though just in ca...

Adjusting the threads down to 3 and putting in on full has worked well, so thanks for the suggestion. CPU temps are currently plateaued in the mid 70s C. GPU temp has remained at 64C. I'm still going to try and mess with airflow, because I feel like I shouldn't be seeing the temps I am with the setu...

Hey, so I just began running F@H on my home PC, and started with "Medium" as that's the recommended setting for most users. However, I found that I had CPU core temps actually hitting 100C on this setting, which seems abnormal. My rig isn't the newest, but I am running an i7 4790k and a GT...
