The processor is the main brain of the computer. Processor on computers often have problems that should not be taken lightly.One cause of this problem is due to overheating (overheating), so it can make the computer restarts frequently and may die suddenly.So take care to keep the processor temperature, to ensure cooling processor (headsink) and the fan works well.
This - matters related to the processor and need to be considered include :
- When installing / before installing the processor, make sure the top of your processor thermal paste has been smeared or Thermal Grease, the gel material which serves to remove heat from the processor to headsink. Generally thermal paste available 2 colors, namely white and silver. We recommend using a silver-colored, silver-colored because the quality is better than the white.
- Select the box / casing which has a smooth air circulation path, so the hardware components inside, including the processor, not heat faster.
- Tidy up the cables, especially cables ATA type larger and wider than the SATA cable, for air circulation inside the casing more smoothly.
- For personal computers, maybe you can open the casing cover, for the smooth circulation of air inside the casing is more effective.But maybe not according to the aesthetic value and not unsightly.
Caring not Happen To Processor Overheating (Thermal Overload) |
Here are some tips on caring for our processor :
- Disconnect all power supply or the electrical contacts from your computer and set aside some time for headsink cooler. Then open headsink and fan from the processor.
- Separate fan and headsink of processors, then clean the fan with a damp cloth, and clean the crack headsink of dust, or it could be washed with a brush or a soft brush. After cleaning, do not forget to drain headsink and do not there is residual water in the gap headsink, it is very important to avoid short circuit electrical current
- Once you are sure is clean, replace the fan with headsink, and attach them to the processor as in the past.
Replace the Fan With Headsink |
It is recommended you do the treatment 3 months, to a computer in an air-conditioned room. And for computers that are in an environment that a lot of dust, treatment can be done more often, maybe every once a month.
So a few tips from us in the care of our computer, especially on the processor. Hopefully writing this little useful for you.
