![]() It turned out that the thermal paste between the heat sink and both the cpu and the graphics processor had creeped off and puddled around the processors on the motherboard. There was no dust at all and no other fan obstruction and the fan was spinning freely. I finally decided to check under the hood. ![]() Interestingly, the temperature monitors in the ASUS Gaming Center app reported zero degrees for the CPU and some crazy high thousands of degrees for the graphics processor even while the fans were running. Monitoring software always showed that the cpu and graphics processor were running nominally cool except right after startup, so they got hot enough to trigger the fans but cooled right down and stayed cool as long as the fans were running. Within a minute of turning on the machine and without any apps open at all the fan would rev to high and stay there. ![]() I went so far as to reinstall Windows 10 along with all the drivers and this did not fix the problem. I had this same problem with my own GL753ve.
