PC Temperatures Good?

My PC has, since 2 am this morning, had this problem where, after a while the screen goes black and this weird buzzing noise iminates from the speakers (not the tower unit, i think).

I looked around and cleaned out the dust, but then I also wondered if my motherboard temperatures could be causing it, therefore, if possible, could someone tell me if the temperatures are all good?

Here are the temps:

    If they are load temps then they are good. If they are idle temps you may wanna replace the tehrmal paste.

    Short answer: Yes, those temperatures are perfectly fine.

    A good temperature for any electrical component is around room temperature.

    To be more precise: 30-80 degrees Celsius.

    While idle, this means the devices aren't doing anything, so they shouldn't be heated up at all.

    While performing things (playing a game, watching a movie) they heat up, so they are hotter.

    Usually electronic devices can last up to 120'C, but that is not a good temperature since it slowly damages electrical components.

    My CPU's fan blew out some time ago, and it started deteriorating in performance for not being cooled off. It was a Intel 1.7 GHz single core, now it only reports 1.09 GHz, and that's lucky that it still works.

    High temperatures will trigger thermal sensors on your devices to slow down the computer, so it heats up less, or even stop it, to prevent things from melting.

    In my case, that made my graphics card shut down for a few seconds and tell me to check the heatsink and fan due to critical temperature.

    The buzzing noise from your speakers means there's a random crash with your audio, which means that whatever is responsible for the audio (drivers, CPU, sound card or integrated audio chip) has frozen or crashed, which could be due to MANY reasons, not just temperature.

    If the screen goes black, it means your video card has decided to take a break, which could be due to temperature, faulty drivers or other issues.

    If your temperatures of your system never exceed 60'C, temperature can't possibly be a problem.

    Though, there's something funky going on with your voltage. Did you try Over-clocking your system through "Speed up my system" kind of software? That could be messing up your system. Try disabling any form of over-clocking if you've done any.

    I'm not sure at the moment what else could be causing this system instability, but it is most certainly a serious fault that the computer can't deal with, since it's not a Blue Screen (stop screen).

    To be precise, it's either temperature, or the voltage on your system. Maybe your PSU is dying.

    You haven't told us how old your computer is, or what parts it has, so I can't be of any more help without additional contact (such as your skype) so I can provide direct assistance.

    Hope this helps!

    maximum laptop temps interior the bios are in Celsius. a working laptop or pc will nevertheless run reliably at 72 stages C. After that it could commence telling you that 2+2=5. in the journey that your 86 stages is Celsius then you could sparkling it out and get some extra air circulating around.
