    Pending OP Response PC started to lag/heavy fps lag and stuttering

    Ok, thank you. I just went ahead an ordered a pre-mixed bottle instead. If it arrives by May 15th, I will empty and refill the tubing. I will be out of the country from May 16-June 9th so I will refill when I come back if the bottle arrives after I leave.

    I tilted and shook the PC a lot, but it made 0 difference. I tried laying down my PC on its side for a few hours so the air can go towards the radiator. This lessened the noise a bit, but had 0 impact on performance. Once I stood the PC upright again, the noise returned back to full. I can try...

    1. I tightened the screws using that method. 4. The aio block did not have a plastic covering. 3. I believe the pump is still working. I looked online a bit on how to tell. The only thing I did to check was to see if one pump was vibrating a little and warmer than the other pump, which it was...

    Pending OP Response PC started to lag/heavy fps lag and stuttering

    I tried opening the side panel and pointing a fan into it, but the CPU temp remained the same and PC remained laggy. I removed the fan I had pointed inside my case and closed back up the PC as it made no difference in temp. I also tried reapplying thermal paste in case I didn't do it correctly...

    An update: Avg Idle CPU temp is 70C, still showing Thermal throttling. Goes to 77-80 while doing small things, like spotify discord or browsing

    Sorry for taking so long. I just finished dusting my pc and reapplying thermal paste using the instructions you provided. Unfortunately, it made no difference. The PC is still very laggy and CPU temps are still 77-80 while idle. What else do you recommend I do?

    Sorry for the delay, I was unable to locate the compound and had to order a new one. Will take a few more days...

    Pending OP Response PC started to lag/heavy fps lag and stuttering

    PSU is different than the one you linked, so I suppose it's an OEM version. This isn't the part I have, but I cleaned off any thermal paste that was behind that small block that says 3.2 Ghz, which was on top of my CPU. I also cleaned off the top of the CPU. When applying the fresh compound, I...

    PSU Brand Name FSP, Model No says HG2-850, but looking up 5P50V03192 brings up the exact PSU I have so I am unsure which one you are asking for. I don't know if you are looking for a specific manufacture date for the PSU, but the PC was purchased on July 2021. I followed online instructions for...

    Pending OP Response PC started to lag/heavy fps lag and stuttering

    Hello, I have a prebuilt that I purchased 2021. Everything was perfect up until last year where my idle CPU temp randomly raised to high 70s and started to be more loud. PC was not lagging at this point and playing games did not cause CPU to raise any further. More time passed then my PC started...
