putting a fan directly blowing to the motherboard??

hi

Is it OK I just open the side of the chassis and put a small portable fan besides that always blowing directly to motherboard?? Will it, on the other hand, blow to damage the component on the motherboard??

Reasons for doing that: CPU's max TDP is higher than motherboard can support.

 

That is completely overkill and would do nothing about the power limitations, etc. If you REALLY must lower your CPU's TDP, I believe you could use ThrottleStop to limit the TDP, you could also try undervolting as well.

 

what is the official site of ThrottleStop?? thanks

 

Since no hardware a specs are given with which CPU how would you expect anyone to give the right response? And if your system has dust bunnies that is one way to over heat your system since it can no longer properly cool the CPU or other components that need proper air flow.

 

See the thread: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/the-throttlestop-guide.531329/

 

I mean, you could do that, though personally I wouldn't leave a desktop opened up like that permanently (what if your pet gets in there and shorts something out? Children? Etc.).

If your side panel has vent holes in it, you could probably mount a case fan onto it and plug it up to your motherboard. But like the others said, I think you're overthinking this.

 

Yea, there are vent holes on my side panel.

the fact is rated TDP of my CPU is higher than the new motherboard that could support. It's a new board, here we cannot return or refund. I just don't want to buy another new

 

I know, I've read that post. You can always undervolt the CPU as already mentioned or simply not keep your CPU at 100% load for long periodstory of time.

Actually, I've never heard of a motherboard with TDP restrictions. Mind sharing a link to your motherboard model?

 

I did not hear about that too.

See the sentence supports CPU up to 77W

TDP=95W

what is the materials that make a brush "Anti-static"??

I am looking for an Anti-static brush to clean out dust accumulated

 

just use a can of compressed air.

 

You're better off using compressed air for dusting, something like this:

 

The CPU rating on that motherboard relates to the power output the boards VRM's are rated for not the amount of heat....The fan isn't going to fix you pulling more power than the VRM's can sustainable provide. Your looking at this problem the wrong way.
