Since few weeks ago I did notice that the computer fan would crank pretty hard it is hot here, but has been hot also in the past 3 years after all. I did buy all from the same brand to minimize issues. The video card is a GTX 9700, also from Asus. It is an i5 4690 3.50 (not overclocked I use the standard ASUS OC setup, which is set in the motherboard automatically). I have this computer that I did assemple, since 2013.
