That's just a good safe speed which is pretty comming.

Mine is 35-40c idle and 50c or so under load. easily safe and lots of people get those kind of temps.

That's what I have now. But after a while it goes up and it's too noisy. I have been meaning to get another fan or a new one (don't have a clue about these sort of things) one day. When I encode DVDs I can get around 60+. Which is VERY noisy.

hey guys i just tried this speedfan thing and I'm kind of worried..

check the screenie.. My fan is not turning.. why? Isn't 58 reallt hot..?

Speed fan has to be compatible with your motherboard and stuff moreless to pick up that sort of information.

If your fans werent working your CPU would over heat very quickly(most cases). Also you'd hear a strange beeping noise as your PC would be telling you my fans arent working help.


Also fan1 and fan2 could and properly are system fans that not everyone's PC has 

So don't worry about it.


Also if your not having trouble with your PC, you have no need to check temperatures. These things make you paranoid.

50-60 unload is normal for AMD CPU's , i been using Intel all the time.

I can assure you mine set constantly at 50-60oC.  unload it  use to hit 70-80.

But then again intel use to be power consumers generated much more heat.(at least presscott cores did )

alby - If you don't/haven't had any issue's just forget about your temperature. It makes you think therres something wrong when theres not.

As people with different setups will tell you different temperatures for CPU's.

excuse me? thats what every program does :/

All programs that monitor your CPU monitor the CORE Temp of the CPU.

There ain't any other temp to monitor lol

As i said if your not doing over clocking and aren't having issue's with your pc stay away from system monitors.

MAKE you so paranoid its unreal and annoying.

I think he means that it can show the temperature of each core in a dual core cpu, which is something speedfan cannot do. Which is correct.
