CPU fan stoping?
Hi!
I have temperature controlled CPU fan installed. It worked perfectly for 2 years, but few days ago it began to behave strangely!
It works at full speed for 2-3 minutes, then it stops and isn't working for 5-10 minutes, and then it's warking againt for a minute or two... After an hour CPU temp is 75-85 and I have to turn off the PC.
I'd like to know your opinion is it fan problem or should I check the motherboar voltage or smthg like that?
btw. MBM states that my Aux (or Core) Voltage is to Low (1.20-1.35V) and my -12V voltage jums from -5 to -11V too. So maybe it's smtg wrong with the PSU?
Thnx for help!

I'm not sure about PSU maker, some cheaper one, 350W.

how often do you clean your pc?
check it for any trapped dirt of stuff like that - very often dirt is the main problem with fans

I've just cleaned it perfectly!
If your PSU is actually having those sort of jumps then a replacement is necessary. The 12v only giving 11v is also a problem.
