Hi everybody,
I've read all previous posts about this problem.
Also my pc turns off suddenly or smells like it's burning![]()

I just want to solve it in this way (for the pc owner is not a problem).

I'm gonna change the termal paste ( blu and red arrow --> processor and graphic card) but I will not replace the big heatsink (yellow arrow), so I will leave opened the zone highlighted by violet square.
I will replace the processor fan.
I've a big doubt: graphic card doesn't have a thermal diode to measure temperature ... so do you think that it can melt without heatsink![]()

?!?!?
It will be refreshed by open air.
let me know what do you think![]()
thank you in advance !

I ran my x600 @ 600mhz rather than the stock 400mhz without issue. However your arrows are a bit wrong.
Blue = CPU
Red = Chipset
Yellow = GPU heatsink
I'd advise taking the GPU heatsink off and repasting.
Also be sure to clean out the fins of the heatsink. -
I don't want to replace neither the heatsink nor the black cover in the violet square ! thanks for your reply but it's not an answer to my question !

No, they put that heatsink there for a reason, your system will fail if you don't have it there.
Sorry but I did not realise how basic the question was. -
Meaker is right- if you remove the heatsink the whole thing will either stop (emergency thermal shutdown) or simply burn.
