7. Sorun Giderme

Bilgisayarınızın kurulumuyla ilgili sorunlarla karşılaşırsanız, aşağıdaki yaygın sorun giderme adımlarını göz önünde bulundurun:

• Görüntü Çıkışı Yok: Verify that your graphics card is fully seated in its PCIe slot and that the monitor cable is securely connected to the graphics card (not the motherboard, unless using integrated graphics).
• Aşırı Isınma: Ensure all case fans are spinning and oriented correctly for optimal airflow (intake at front/bottom, exhaust at rear/top). Clean dust filters and internal components regularly.
• Fan Gürültüsü: Check if fan cables are clear of fan blades. Ensure fans are securely mounted. Excessive noise might indicate a faulty fan or dust buildup.
• Serbest Bileşenler: If you hear rattling, check that all installed components (motherboard, GPU, drives) are securely fastened with screws.
