Fix 9 – Increase RAM<\/h3>\n

If the RAM installed displays no errors, then you might need to increase the RAM<\/a> on the PC. Look for empty RAM slots and install another chip. If there is no empty slot, then you might have to replace the currently installed RAM with a higher-capacity RAM.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fix 10 – Overheating CPU<\/h3>\n

If your CPU is overheating, then you will find that most of your apps lag and your PC freezes up in a short time. The normal temperature of your CPU is supposed to be between 40 and 65 degrees. While gaming, some PCs display temperatures up to 80 degrees. Anything more than that could be a serious problem, and here are a few tips.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Install a PC temperature monitor app like MSI Afterburner or HWMonitor.
\n<\/span>2. If the temperatures exceed 80 degrees Celsius, then turn off your PC, open the case, and blow air using a blower on the Fans and other components to remove dust particles. If you cannot do it yourself, then we suggest you take it to a service center.
\n<\/span>3. Place the PC in a ventilated space so that the air flow is maximum.
\n<\/span>4. Check if you can adjust Fan speeds using MSI Afterburner and increase the speeds when the temperature rises.<\/span><\/p>\n
