CPU heating up Rainbow Six Siege

[II Muazkito II]

Hi
I have an old computer new graphic card GEFORCE GTX 1050TI playing two months fine until now after half hour playing computer will make a siren low high low high beeping noise stop when I exit game. I have been monitoring cpu temperature core is 65 as soon as game is started 80. I have contacted Nvidia support chat they told me to do a clean install . This did nothing.
Then they suggested that I send the graphic card for testing and repair, said this could be the issue. otherwise, could it be that my computer is old and need more cooling? these are my specs:
i7 920 2.67 GHz
8 GB ram
1 Tb storage
Windows 10 pro

Any help or suggestion will be appreciated.... am pretty broke hope to just tweak computer maybe something is Bios start or Steam settings or or. thanks

CPU cooler?

1. is it actually your motherboard speaker making that siren tone, or is it just coil whine (google that)?
2. turn power off. unplug. press power button to discharge capacitators. open case. use a brush (small paint brush, pastry brush, wathever, must be new and not greasy) to brush away all dirt from cpu cooler and elsewhere, including air vents. do this outside.
3. improvement? no? then you need to buy a new cpu cooler. they are like $20 for pretty good ones like cooler master hyper 212.

Probably your CPU cooler is not doing its job well. You should consider replacing it with a aftermarket cooler such as cryorig H7. Or try replacing thermal paste first without replacing cooler to see if it works out. Also clean your computer using compressed air can.

compressed air is what we use in the field for jobs, and technicians use it in workshops too, but that is because they need to do it fast and they don't have to pay for the cans.

it is a far inferior method of built-up dirt removal than (properly grounded, clean brush) mechanical removal.

his cpu is too old and too cheap to be worth buying a high end cooler.

ez put new thermal paste

WOA

A CPU GETS HOT WHEN IT IS USED?
I WOULD HAVE NEVER HAVE GUESSED?

Open the side of your computer and point a standalone fan at it. Other than that, new thermal paste.

Compressed air cans are cheap to obtain and really effective getting the dust out of dense locations and small fins inside pc therefore its really useful tho. But just did a compability check on H7 it doesnt support LGA 1366. So cleaning with compressed air and replacing thermal paste seems easiest option other than getting a H212 EVO but height may be problem.

Okay, so my options are to get thermal paste and apply it, purchase a new CPU, use a compressed air can, or point a fan on the inside of my PC, correct? If anybody could tell me which one of these are the most affective, that would be helpful. Thanks for the help

true, in between the fins compressed air is great. if you do not have you can still use a brush or you can even blow it clean with your mouth but you will want to remove the HSF first.

start by cleaning your computer. it's free and low risk. open it up, blow it out with compressed air or use a brush if you don'thave access to that. either way works one is just easier than the other. do it outdoors if you can. and wear a dust mask or at least a rag tied around your mouth and nose.
