Yeah, that's a good idea, I didn't think about that at all. I don't think there's any on the MB maybe a tiny bit, but the graphics card is pretty covered.

Ok, so here was the problem I figured it out! I should have just taken the side panel off to begin with. Ok I have a liquid cooled computer and the fan on the side panel was rubbing against the hose and now the coolant is sprayed all over the inside of my computer! I just thought my fan was loud! I feel like such an idiot! It was a factory built computer so I think they'll fix it, they should, it's not my fault they put the hose and fans too close together.

Yes I'm taking it back to the manufacturer, I'm no computer expert. Thanks for help.

The case is a Cyberpower PC case from Futureshop I'm not sure what model specifically it has six fans and my room is quite cool, around 18°c on average.

I was playing an older game (not sure if it makes a diffirence how old a game is) and it started getting choppy so I reset my computer and on the reboot it beeped a few times and a little message said that the CPU was hot, (I can't remember exactly what it said but basically my CPU was too hot).

I've tried a few different CPU temp reading programs (to come up with some sort of avarage) and after running a game for about ten minutes they all read in the low to mid 90's.

I'll try updating my BIOS and see if that helps.

I was just wondering about my processor, it seems to be running at unhealthy temps, I dunno, I'm not very knowledgeable about computers but I think it's running to high. I downloaded the program RealTemp and took a screenshot so anybody with knowledge about this can help.

I just booted up my computer and ran RealTemp just sitting there for about an hour and this is the results:
