Re: Where do you check your CPU temp?
 

mobile meter is freeware that seems to work well. it monitors cpu temp, batter charge/discharge rate, and HD temp.

I downloaded MBM5, but it needed to know what the motherboard was. I then downloaded PC Wizard to find out what the motherboard was, and it also had what I was looking for.

It says my processor is at 60' celsius and the meter is in the red. Is this really bad or just marginal?

60 feet is very high up. Don't let it drop too fast or you'll dislodge the DSP smoothing pins from the 64Mod gates and then you'll have a serious issue with electron backflow, similar to what happened on some disasterous shuttle flights. This can dammage both the MMU and the FPP not to mention disabling 3 of the 4 quad-pipelining managers. Good luck though.

I use the tools that came with my ASUS motherboard.

Depending on the processor, it's a little high, but not incredibly bad.

Is this your temp at full cpu load? If this is just an idle temp, you may have some issues. Also is this a P4 or P-M?
