Hi guys just wanted a bit of help please. I purchased a new pc from here about a month ago and everything seems great, but when I went to play star wars the old republic beta my fan goes really loud, and I am a bit worried my pc will break down if I keep playing, is this normal?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

do what i said in the other thread and get the fans, and clean out your current ones, should improve temps, have a look at the gfx card temps with GPU-Z and put em here (do it in the middle of the game)

be aware that it is a beta and often isnt optimized and therefore inefficient using more power than the end game will need

yeh i was only looking at the GPU which is quite high although not over alarming, but it will increase in time with a build up of dust unless you clean them fans out, and buy the ones i suggested (or any fans if you are low on cash)
