it's your computer trying to kill itself because you are torturing it with d3

Thank you very much for the tons of replies! After school I will buy a can of air and try cleaning out the inside, and also lowering the graphics and see if that helps.

But if it doesn't, what else to do then?

I have this problem when i play diablo 3 and ONLY when i play diablo 3.. The problem is about my computer making this noise like it's a vacuum cleaner, and I think it might be because my CPU is overextending from loading all the different maps etc.

So i would like to ask if anyone else have had this problem and know if this can be fixed without buying new hardware? Like changing something in settings or something like that?

Let me know if you need any other information in order to help me out, thanks.

Andreas.


It's a sign from God.

Run game case open to see if it's cpy or gpu that makes noise. If gpu, changing drivers can help sometimes. If you have controllable fans, you can also adjust them to lower speeds but then I recommend you to have a temperature meter too.

If you don't have controllable fans, cheapest way would be buying a control unit, or new better heatsink with fan.

And to the extreme, new graphics card if you are not familiar with hw modifications.

What he said, but I'd just ignore it until it died and then get a new video card (there's no guarantee it even will die)

This lol,
Download speccy, and post screenshot.
Do not use a vacuum cleaner lol, that'll destroy ur components due to the static etc.
But like others have already said, Ur gpu/cpu are overheating, so blow out Ur computer with air compressed cans, and manage your cables, so that the airflow is smooth

If it's gpu overheating, Download msi afterburner program, and check the fan curve to about 70%

BTW: I tried lowering my graphics to the lowest (or at least close to lowest) and it helped quite a bit, but it still make this noise that, and it doesn't do that in other games (but way lower than before).
