Computer Over heating

All computers laptops PCs and MacBook do generate heat generally a lot more heat in CPU and GPU areas this why those fans and ventilation maintenance is important.

Though all computer do generate heat but It is important to look for the signs of overheating which can leave permanent damage computers if left untreated.

Some PCs laptops or custom build computers may generate more heat due ventilation design or to be more specific high performance machine with larger graphics card or CPUs. Over time fan performance and usage over years require servicing or cleaning in areas of fan ventilation compartments and internals in general for healthy and optimized thermal performance.

Importance of treating over heating issues on laptop.

All computers must be serviced after some time of usage to maintain their best-optimized performance over time. Depending on the environment in which the computer is being used, dust can accumulate, resulting in complete or partial blockage around the ventilation area. This can cause high temperatures, extra stress on fans, increased energy consumption, and, more importantly, adverse effects on GPU and CPU performance.

  • Drop in frame rates while gamming graphics intensive work
  • Slowness due to poor thermals during high CPU computations
  • System crashes or instability: Overheating can cause your computer to freeze, crash, or restart unexpectedly.
  • Unusual fan noise, vibrations or rattling noise 
  • Burning feeling or hot-to-the-touch sides or under laptop
  • Sudden shutdowns triggered often by system management to prevent damage to electronic component from excessive heat
  • Higher power consumption due to fan going in over drive due to dust or debris blockage in ventilation areas preventing good airflow

Our workshop provides comprehensive general servicing, including performance testing, temperature monitoring, and thermal paste replacement. All performed by certified technician with manufacture guidelines and original tools. Some of the many advantages and improvements after service are listed below.

To prevent these potential damages, it’s essential to manage your laptop’s temperature effectively. This can be achieved by maintaining good airflow, using cooling pads, cleaning dust from the internal components, and avoiding overtaxing the laptop with resource-intensive tasks in hot environments. Regular maintenance and careful use can help ensure the longevity and reliability of your laptop.

  • Optimal airflow: Ensure your computer case has good airflow
  • Adequate cooling: Invest in high-quality cooling solutions, such as heatsinks
  • Use original thermal paste: Apply a good quality thermal paste when mounting or remounting your CPU or GPU heatsink
  • Helps overclocking with better thermal performance
  • Less  power consumption stopping fan over drive
  • Clean internals of dust and debris over time

FAQ

How long does it take? 

Depending on computer build and laptop model usually 2-4 hours however some model can take longer due to time it takes to operate on them or have multiple GPUs or CPUs on workstations.
