Hi to all,
I would like to know ,which are the normal and safest operating temperatures for Intel i7-4500u processor,while the system is idle,and while it is under load(for an eg. while playing some game like GTA V)?
Thanks to all in advance!
Best regards!

I would avoid messing with fan speed profiles. Your CPU will protect itself from overheating by throttling, but there's not much to be gained by changing a laptop's fan profile.

Many laptops allow that CPU to get up to 90-95c during heavy loads, and it's not like you have any choice in the matter, given that most fan speed profiles are not editable, and the coolers are not replaceable. I have never heard of a modern Intel CPU dying prematurely from heat.

Dear Ecky,thank you for replying to me!
I would also like to know which is the normal operating temperature for that processor while the system is idle.
And something more,which is the most reliable program for monitoring the temps of the laptop's hardware (motherboard,GPU,HDD,fans speed etc.)
Thanks in advance!

RealTemp or CoreTemp are good for monitoring temperature. Idle will depend on your ambient temperatures, and your laptop's cooling profile. Many will not turn on the fan until 50 or 60c, to save power, while others will leave it on at all times when the laptop is plugged in. If your ambient temperature is 40c, don't expect less than 50c at idle. If it's closer to 15c, you can expect much lower idle temperatures.

I would advise not paying attention to temperature on a locked CPU. Unless it throttles, it's just a mostly meaningless number that far too many people worry about.

Dear Ecky,thank you very much!
I have one more question!
What do you think about SpeedFan?Could that program help in regulating the temp of the hardware,with adjusting the speed of the fans?Or it could damage the hardware?
Best regards!
