PC Temperature

[Berg]

How can you check it? and what is classed the normal temperature?

Thanks
Berg.

Most mobos give you the cpu temp in the bios. It is considered the most accurate reading. Acceptable temps are anything from 65C and below. 90C will kill the proc.

That depends on the processor. In some cases, 65 is enough to get some stability problems, especially in an overclocking situation.

The BIOS will most likely give you the most accurate reading. But if you don't feel like going into the BIOS, you can use AIDA32 which will not only give you temps (which are fairly accurate) but also in depth system specs.

Thanks for the replys. My PC temp is around 51c, and im running an AMD 2200+ cpu, so I think everything is A ok with that....

No problem. I don't use it for the temps all that much, just once in awhile. And it's a really good thing to have if you work on other people's PC's and they don't have any clue what the specs are.

This program is superb, I shall say!
