LAPTOP:
CPU: Intel Core i7 5500u
Max Temp: 105 degrees celsius
Idle: 40-59 degrees
Browsing the internet: 45-65 degrees, mainly in the 50s
Gaming: 60-89 degrees, mostly in the 70s, sometimes spikes up to 90-97 but they're only quick spikes for like 1 second or 2.

I use RealTemp to monitor my temps. Sometimes when I'm gaming it says "LOG", but I never stick around, I just shut down my pc when it says "LOG". It has never gone to "HOT". My laptop has never shut down by itself due to overheating. I just want to know if these are normal "working' temps for my cpu, thanks for reading, answers are always appreciated!

Usual for a laptop, brand new Msi (i7 4710HQ, 860M etc) was ideling around 50-60C and under load was around high 70C to low 90C. My low end HP idles around 40-50C and under load is around 70-80C (Modded cooling)
