What else can I help you with?
Why does the computer and the CPU each have fans?
to reduce the heat. its acts as a coolant
What is the benefit of using CPU throttling in laptops?
to modify the clock speed as needed to reduce power consumption and heat.
How do you upgrade your CPU?
Quite simple find out what socket your previous cpu is, buy one that fits your motherboard. To install, remove fan/heat sink. Then remove old cpu, replace it and apply thermal grease, put the fan/heat sink in position and its done.
Which one of the following performance modifications can overheat the CPU?
Overclocking the CPU is a performance modification that can lead to overheating. This process involves increasing the CPU's clock speed beyond the manufacturer's specifications, which generates more heat. If adequate cooling solutions, such as high-performance fans or liquid cooling systems, are not implemented, the increased heat can cause the CPU to overheat and potentially damage the processor or reduce its lifespan.
Why is it important to double-check the bottom of the heat sink before attaching it to the CPU socket?
It is important to double check the bottom of heat sink before attaching it to the CPU socket so as to ensure proper insulation. This one of the basic safety precautions in connecting a CPU.
What goes between a CPU and heat sink?
Heatsink compount or special heat pad. The reason for this is to form a tight thermal bond between the processor (CPU = Central Processing Unit) and heatsink for the best transfer of heat away from the CPU.
How can you reduce your CPU speed to lower the heat genrated?
If you have a laptop and you have vista go to power option and cusimize, otherwise search for a program (and download it) that will do the job for you.
What is the purpose of the fan in the CPU?
Most heat is dispersed from the CPU by the heat sink - a large aluminium blob stuck onto the actual CPU. The fan is there to assist in the distribution of heat away from the CPU and into the surrounding atmosphere. So CPU's run so cool - laptops, phones etc, don't have a fan as the CPU's run relatively cool, and the heat generated can be dispersed by convection.
What is the function of CPU fan?
CPU fan is attached together with a heat sink on the mother board, CPU fan is used to prevent overheating of the processor on the motheboard
When upgrading a CPU what must be applied between the new CPU and the heat sink fan?
Thermal grease to allow heat to transfer to the heat sink.
How do you know that the CPU is broken?
If you hear a long beep sound with no display from CPU.
Which type of CPU cooler contains heat pipes?
Most commonly, tower-style CPU coolers and some high-performance air coolers contain heat pipes. These heat pipes transfer heat away from the CPU to the cooling fins, where it is dissipated.
