My pc fan suddenly starts humming loud when i start playing games..

it didnt happen before but now it happens for even simple online flash games..

my cofig:
intel pr processor
nvidia 6300gs
asus P5GL-Mx motherboard

please help

It's because CPU is getting hotter and hottter....

Check your temparature using this-

Open Hardware Monitor | CPU Temperature, Fan Speed, Voltages, Clocks and More

and post results & secrren shots...

Proper CPU cleanup reccomended

I tried cleaning up the cpu fan but no avail..

i have attached the screen shots..

You will need to remove the HFS, clean of the guck re-TIM, and remount.

Hope it works.....
Thanks for the help all.....

Online Games doesn't stress CPU at all/ Your CPU Fan might not have been installed properly, or maybe the FAN is jammed due to dust or soomething.

I have tried opening up and cleaning the CPU fan using electric blower..
But the problem still persists.
Is it time for me to say goodbye to my PC ? :sad:

Don't lose hope so soon pal :smile:

Try cleaning the inlet and exhaust fan of your case also.Sometimes improper air flow due to accumulation of dust or so also leads to working up of higher temp inside the case and the cpu indirectly.

Over the time the fans-especially the cpu fan and the rear exhaust fan start making a lot of noise.
I too had exactly the same problem as yours....I changed my cpu fan and the problem was solved :smile:

Try that once.

You would need to remove the heat sink fan assembly.
