I have an Intel Core Duo e6550 Processor ... looking at the little booklet that came with it I see that Intel says:
"To ensure that this Intel processor will operate within thermal specifications,an Intel ambient temperature at 38°C is required".
How true is this ?
Looking around via Google, I get the impression that even 60° C is fine.
I am not looking to overclock the thing or anything special.
I just want to run it reliably, and know that I am not doing any damage to it.
So far I've had my PC in for 45 minutes, and the application "Core Temp" says it's already at 38° C.
