#251 - Q&A: Is burn smell from computer system normal?




In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows:

1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link:
https://web.archive.org/web/20210000000000*/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUrvIJBEdBU

2. Right-click on a blue entry in July in the calendar.

3. Click 'Copy link address'.

4. Paste the copied link address into your web browser's address bar and press enter.

Question answered in the video:
I have a question about the heat generated by today's computer. I recently build a computer based on i5-2500K with stock cooler, HAF X case, and GTX 580 with all the cord coming from the back of the case. I noticed when running games that it will start to smell like smoke and my room would became hot like I had a heater on. I did check the temperatures and they are good. I was wonder is that how computers are now or is something wrong? The latest CPU I had was AMD Athlon 64 3500+ and my room did not heat up.
