When I launched my stationary PC this morning, there were some books on the keyboard so it started beeping, i don't know which buttons the books were on and my fans started running so fast and extremely loud.
My pc have 3 fans, 2 of them are running on 3XXX RPM and the other one on 5XXX RPM (https://image.ibb.co/jYAjYw/fan.png), I tried to slow them by using speedfan but it didn't work.

Anyone knows what's wrong? 

Thanks!

Was this in Windows when it sped up? How are your system temps? Might be an option in BIOS for it.

 

I don't think any key would make it go faster. Unless it was just a coincedence?

Dust or other blockage within the heatsink fins?

Dried out thermal paste?

Might also be a contributing problem.

I'm guessing you didn't restart the computer to see is a booted state helped.

(I'm also guessing someone else will turn up in a few days with links to the perfect solution)

      I am British, but still not offended, I really don't care. It is a shame that countries are run by the people that run them, that can't get on with other countries. Religion and greed is a lot of the problem. What we could do if we got together instead of fighting each other. But that is not the way it is, so because of that, we really need to show the world what the U.K can do. We have some very clever people in this country, sadly the government don't seem to do anything with them.

    • NVIDIA AI Trained Itself on a 30B Model: Corrected Its Own Broken Metric Mid-Run

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm
