Hyper Threaded Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 (edited) Between 30c-50c is most desirable. Under 30c is even better. Use the software that came with your motherboard to check the temperature for starters, that's the easiest way.

kobalt Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Or check in your bios, there's always a section about system health Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
worker Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Check the bois at start up or some motherboards come with software that you can install and it will tell you the temp of the cpu and other fans if they are pluged into the motherboard fan hoock ups.
