My GF's computer has seemed to decide that it wants to over heat. She has an AMD 2500+ with retail Heatsink. Recently we transferred her to a new case and it has one case fan in the back. There is no pathway in the front of the case for airflow except a little hole in the bottom.
The question is, Would she benefit more from a couple of case fans in the front? (even though I don't think they could draw that much air in through a small hole) Or would she benefit better from a new heatsink?
The temperatures start in a safe range and they climb almost constantly over a long period of time to high temperatures and it causes the motherboard to issue a beep code error.
If you do recommend a heatsink... or more case fans please link for me or tell me what it is. I'm also on a budget.. Thanks!!!
