Check Your Computer's Temperature

Heat is one of the most common — and most overlooked — causes of computer problems. Dust builds up, fans wear out, and thermal paste dries out over time, all making it harder for your computer to cool itself. Left unchecked, it can quietly damage components long before the computer actually shuts down.

Signs Your Computer is Overheating

• Loud fans: Fans run at maximum speed and sound very noisy as they try to cool hot parts.
• Sluggish performance: The system slows down or stutters because the processor reduces its speed to stay cool.
• Unexpected crashes: Programs freeze, the screen locks up, or you see a blue screen of death.
• Random shutdowns: The computer suddenly turns off without warning to protect itself from damage.
• Hot to the touch: The case or the bottom of a laptop feels very warm or hot.

A bit of warmth is normal, but any of the signs above are worth acting on before they turn into a repair. If your computer's been running hot, get in touch and we'll check it over.
