I hear advice about what my cpu can handle (Intel Mobile Core 2 Quad Q9000, max 100C). Obviously it can't be good to run it that hot (I presume). The problem is there are many factors, I hear temp monitoring is actually just an approximation and not as accurate as people think. Secondly, I've read articles that state most cpu's can safely overclock to a notable level. Other than that, whenever asked about processor temperature, people seem to say a range, like 70C un der load is normal, and 90C is probably not good. I have a laptop btw.
Finally: Is there a ratio that's universal to all processors based on their min/max? For example, half of your max temp is normal idle, three quarters under load is normal but should not go on for extended periods, and anything towards max is highly recommended a time out.
Is there something like this for laptops so I'm not ball-parking so much (still an approximation though).
