    Ohooo mercy what a mess.

    If I may I would also suggest that all intake fans on the case have filters installed. That should help keep the dog hair out of the case. Those filter will probably have to be cleaned very often.
    The temps you must of been running has surly dried out the thermal paste.

    You should see a big improvement after cleaning up that mess. However, I did not crap my pants, but I would also suggest re applying thermal paste. If you need instructions, I can help.
    I did reapply thermal paste.

    I already said that I believe in the above post
    Things so far are sooo much lower in temps. To think I was idling in a game that high compared to now.

    About to play a game. I will see what the max temp I reach is.

    I feel like a complete turd that shouldn't own a PC.

    I just played 2 full games and didn't BSOD and my temps didnt go higher than 45.9 , averaged 40.6.
    So even the Max that i reached is like 12 degrees cooler than I was idling before-hand.

    One thing I am noticing though, that was not happening before hand.
    My +VDDA and 12V warnings have popped up just for a brief second once each. Is that normal?

    I clean my case out alot, just never have removed the CPU Fans from the cooler/heatsink whatever it is. Crazy to thing it was that bad and I never though to clean it.

    I will for sure look into some filters. I have one on the rear fan and bottom psu fan. But not on my front or side fan.

    It depends on what board you have. Many of the manufacturers utilities are useless.

    I always use my cpu cooling fan at a full 12 volts. I don't use the cpu fan header PWM on the motherboard.
    Before you can do this you must change some thing in the bios or some systems won't boot if something isn't plugged into the PWM cpu fan header.

    I think it is minimum fan speed. Mine I just change to ignore.

    Yeah I think the bios is full of crap.

    It popped up and said my CPU Temp was a 70. But HW said it was at 39 and even the Bios itself said 39 when I tabbed over too it.

    So far so good, I have not been able to play this many games in a row without a crash in awhile.

    Thank you guys for all the help!

    I can't believe it took all of this for something so simple but I am sure its not the first time its happened on these forums and won't be the last!

    Tomorrow I will play some H1Z1 and we will see in my computer instant BSOD's as soon as I open the game. I am betting it won't!!

    Last question though,

    Is it normal that my PSU fan starts up extremely low RPM right when I fire up PC? And takes probably 2 minutes to get to 1600 RPM.
