Overheating at idle could be a fan shroud problem……..make sure you have the shroud and that it is re-installed properly. CPU temp varies by CPU too. Under higher load, such as when playing a game, rendering a video, or other intensive tasks, your CPU consumes more power and, thus, runs at a higher temperature. More of a "usage indicator" than a "hardware safety feature", in it's current state. You can click on this block to access further details, as shown in the image below.As you can see, the current temperature of this system's CPU is 41 degrees Celsius, which is a healthy idle temperature. 4,764 Posts #3 • Mar 17, 2015.

This is more important than idle temperatures (assuming idle temps are fine) and you'll want to periodically monitor your CPU temperature under load to ensure it's adequately cooled during such conditions. To contact the forum owner hit the Contact Us link. Instead, every CPU comes with digital thermal sensors built-in, so all you need is a bit of software to read their measurements.Below we'll break down what a healthy range of temperatures is for a CPU, how to check your CPU temperature and what to do if your CPU's temperatures are too high.When the CPU is idle, or not being used by any program, a healthy temperature is anything under or around 50 degrees Celsius (122 degrees Fahrenheit). My msi x470 gaming plus lets me use rgb lights on the back of the board to have an idea where my cpu temps are.

To obtain their idle and normal temperature range, we combined temperature readings from a budget air cooler (Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO) and high end liquid cooler (Corsair H100i GTX). Core i7-4770K. You can sort of go by coolant temp for shut down temp but the cool down is for the turbo. By continuing to use this site, you are agreeing to our use of cookies. Heat and electronics don't mix. New York, that symptom has stopped ( I think ) after replacing both o2 sensors, tps, idle air motor, coolant temp sensor, Under load, you want your CPU to ideally stay under 80 degrees Celsius (176 degrees Fahrenheit), though some CPUs may run hotter when they're in More advanced users who want the utmost confidence that their CPU can handle aggressive workloads should Checking your CPU temperature is as easy as firing up a monitoring program and using it to read out the value. The stress test temperature was achieved by running Prime95 for about 30 minutes, though the CPU hit its maximum temperature of 75 degrees Celsius within 10 minutes.With Core Temp, the best way to monitor your temperature while gaming is to just have a good session, and then check back in with the program to see what the maximum recorded temperature is. CPU temp varies by CPU too. My case temp generally runs 68-78°f. The 6xxx series and older Intel CPUs aren't supposed to go over 70. Get instant access to breaking news, in-depth reviews and helpful tips.Thank you for signing up to Tom's Hardware. And, since Core Temp also shows me what the processor’s load is, I can tell that these temperature readings are coming from when the CPU is idling (the screenshot shows that my CPU is at less than 5% load, which means it is “idle”.) Anything between 80 and 95 degrees may have room for improvement.If under load your CPU temperature is exceeding 80 degrees Celsius, you should check your system to ensure the CPU's cooling is adequate. This is regardless of whether it's 90° outside and I have the window open on the freeway, or whether I have the A/C on, it's 110° outside, and I'm stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. 28 to 35°C. The ideal temp is to watch the Pre-Turbo temp(EGT1B1). For SFF PCs and laptops, it's possible that there's minimal cooling, as the device was never intended to be used under high loads for extended periods of time.
