PC keeps overheating

[murph]

new to pc games...my pc isn't that good by any means but i was told i could run CS:GO. I've been able to play it for about 20 minutes and then my entire pc will just crash. I downloaded speedfan knowing it had something to do with my temps and gpu but could anyone help me figure out what Temp1 could be referring to? Getting a new gpu anyway but I'm not sure what Temp1 is referring to.

If it's overheating then it's either CPU Core Temp or GPU Temp; either way, if the temps are too high on either, then u need better cooling. Just changing something, like GPU isn't going to help if the cooling overall is not good, like the airflow within your case.

i took off my case door entirely and it cooled the gpu down by 10 degrees...also trying to get into my bios and adjust fans but i forgot the damn password

What are your specs?

intel core i5 750 @ 2.7

geforce gt 220

windows 7 64 bit

memory 6.2gb

Temp1 seems to be your CPU temp, as the GPU temp is already there and everything else couldn't be processor temps under load while on air cooling.

Your GPU is fine in terms of temps, but it looks like something could be wrong with your CPU cooler, most likely the fan on the cooler isn't working correctly. Have you also checked for dust buildup in the cooler?

i dust sprayed the fan above the cooler about 2 weeks ago and really cleared it up...forgive me im pretty lost when it comes to pcs...anyway i can spray the cooler? btw my gpu gets to about 100 celcius when running CS

350 watts

Yeah, you need to upgrade your PSU and GPU.

any recommendations on upgrades between 50$-100$ each?

pick up a gtx750-ti

63c is fine for a gpu, most are good for 90-100c
temp 1 of 127c is a missing sensor

well i re dust sprayed my pc again and then took out my gpu and sprayed the fan...it actually had a lot of dust it in that i thought i got out without removing it. http://gyazo.com/7dfe647bdf47b0a2115ff20c178b9b59

my temp dropped like 20 degrees and i just played a full game of casual on cs go without any overheat. gpu temp i dont think even hit 60 while playing which is awesome but i'm gonna still need to pick up a new gpu. any idea what the temp1 is? no matter what i do it just stays at 127 celcius

127c is a missing sensor on the boards design
the monitor circuit supports more sensors than what are used

so are u saying nothing could be overheating, im just missing a sensor on the mb?

yes

Yeah, it's nothing. It's just a false reading iirc. But if you managed to get the temp down by 20C, then you might be fine with your current PSU. I'm just a real stickler for decent PSUs though, I just find cheaper/stock ones to be dangerous. They actually kinda scare me lol.

well should i be alright just playing cs:go? only game ill be playing plus i use the pc for web browsing, skype, listening to music and watching movies...not much else. my gpu is now steady at about 35-40 before i cleaned the fan it was about 50-60...played a full game of csgo about 20 minutes and had no issues. ill upgrade in the next month or so but ive had this pc for about 5-6 years lol and havent had to replace anything

yeah thanks for the help though i think i fixed this short term issue....i just played cs for about an hour and my temp maxed out at 50 which is amazing compared to the 100 celcius then crash i was dealing with earlier in the day
