Keep Your Computer Running Cool

Keeping your Computer Cool One of the biggest problems facing newer desk top computers and laptops is keeping your computer cool. New chips in both desk tops and laptops run at incredibly high temperatures. If your computer is not ventilated properly, it can cause your computer to have a melt down and crash- causing lots of wasted time and money. Here are a few tips to keep your computer cool and running smoothly. Make sure your computer air vents are clean and free of dust. If your air vents are blocked, then cooler air can enter your computer to cool your chips and hot air can't escape your computer causing the core temperature to rise to possible meltdown temperatures. It is also a good idea to keep your computer in a cool room or in well ventilated portion of the room, so there is always fresh, cool air available. If you have a laptop then you will need to be extremely careful and watch that your laptop does not heat up. Locate where the fan is located on your machine and make sure that it is never blocked. Make sure that these vents are also clean. Try not to put your computer on warm or hot surfaces or surfaces that conduct heat. If you find that your desktop or laptop computer is having heat problems, look into installing a larger or extra fan. Internal fans only cost a few dollars and can help cool your computer down quickly.
