Solved Samsung R540 CPU Overheating

  • 0

Hi
I got Samsung R540-JA01AE and CPU is overheating (shutdown at 90C when running AIDA stability test) and i don’t know what to do.

Things i have done
-Cleaning the vents
-Take apart the whole thing, cleaning the fan and replace thermal paste.

Idle CPU is sit 48C, the fan doesn’t make any weird noise. I am thinking may be the fan is bad.
Please help i ran out of ideas.

You know the real meaning of peace only if you have been through the war.

  1. There are BIOS settings on some rigs that throttle CPU fan speed to a percentage of max. This may be the case if Cool & Quiet or the Intel equivalent is enabled.

    Also, running on AC power with some laptops allows the hybid graphics to kick in, which will cause more heat to be generated.
