When to notebook is idle the temperature through pcwizzard is about 65celcius but when i use convertxtodvd it goes untill 110celcius. What is the maximum temperature these kind of cpu can goes?

Thanks in advance.

get a cooler under that and you should be fine. I suggest the Thermaltake iXoft.

I have a cooler at the moment with fans on it and im waiting for ixoft to come i have ordered it...and im waiting for it but with the notebook cooler i havent seen such a difference it has been dicreased around 3 degrees.

What is the maximum temperature that can be reached?

max and still workable? maybe 70-80C?

In a laptop, if one thing gets hot, the other components will get hot as well.

make sure yours is well dusted out.

I have cleaned it up i used compressed air and the fan is clean. Yeap the pc wizzars was showing 110degrees and it was working fine. Should it be a wrong indication from the progie? Is that possible? Now it shows 75 degrees. with the cooler below it.

it could be, you try everest?

[freemancy]

I will try it now.. but i was wondering if there is any software like the intel`s active monitor for the desktop mobo

I dont know which one is correct:) Everest shows 30 degrees less how can i find out which one is the correct one?

Sensor Properties:

Sensor Type CPU, HDD, ACPI, Intel GMCH

Temperatures:

CPU 51 ?C (124 ?F)

CPU #1 / Core #1 46 ?C (115 ?F)

CPU #1 / Core #2 50 ?C (122 ?F)

GMCH1 39 ?C (102 ?F)

GMCH2 41 ?C (106 ?F)

FUJITSU MHV2100BH PL 34 ?C (93 ?F)

Voltage Values:

CPU Core 1.29 V

And the strange for me is that the pcwizzars shows now exactly the same temperatures.

could be a glitch, bios should tell you the closest temps. unless the sensor is bad...

[freemancy]

I dont have the temperatures in bios unfortunately and i have another question can the core1 and core2 be around 90degrees and the total of the cpu 69?

[Mindovermaster Global Moderator]

cpu is the outside temp, not the temp inside the core, which core 1 and 2 are located.

I thought every bios had temps...

[freemancy]

I tried to find them in the bios but i couldnt find such a setting. So what is more critical the cores temperatures or the outsite temp?Field Value
