[Alienware Aroura r4] Thermal Control Problems
Hey there,
I noticed with my Aurora R4 was having an issue with it's thermals, primarily the H80i cpu cooler or thermal control system. The issue is whenever the system is anywhere other than idle the radiator and pump on the cpu cooler kick up to 100% and VERY loud. Along with this issue but possibly unrelated there is an issue with frames skipping and I get a buzzing sound from my speakers periodically when playing games, both of these issues developed a day after I started getting the thermal issue.
Windows 7 Home Premium x64

8GB Ram
Intel core i7-3820 @ 3.6GHz
Corsair H80i cpu cooler
