Overheating?

[kreepa]

i use this program called speedfan to check the temp levels of my cpu and gpu and all the other things....


Windows 7 ultimate 32-bit(6.1,Build 7600)
Pentium dual-core E5300 @ 2.6ghz
4096mb ram ddr2
GTX 460 768mb
P5QPL-AM motherboard
Bs-450w BFG power supply
hp w1707 17inch 1440x900 resolution
NZXT M59 - 001BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

thats my build and the temp i get for my cpu is - 65C core 0 -66c core 1 - 61

you think thats too hot for my cpu to run at? im getting a new cooler but just wondering

thats the cooler im gonna get what do you think? thanks

 

[sarwar_r87]

is that idle temp or load temp??

either ways , i recommend using coretemp or HWiNFO32. speedfan has always given me incorrect readings in all my motherboards

For an intel, shut off temp is 100C. Don't let it get that high. That core is proably rated @ 71*C (pretty standard), I would do my best not to let it pass 65 for over a few minuts. This wont cause instant damage, but a cooler CPU is a longer lasting CPU. I'm @ 44C idle, 55C load sustained, and whie thats fine, I would like to drop about 10C, but its not *nessicary*

+1 for the core temp program.
