1.2G. Is this temp OK?

[Bghead8che]

I have a 1.2G Athlon that is NOT overclocked. When using SiSoft it reports the "CPU Temprature" as 61C and 141.8F.

Does this seem about right? I'm thinking of OC my system. What is an "acceptable" upper temp range?

Thanks for any and all replies!

Wow. Sounds a bit on the high side. What kinda hsf are you using?

Mine stays at a constant 37 degrees Celcius, I think yours is a bit too high.

Do you have an A7V family MB? What bios revision?

Also, regardless of mb, what is your MB/System temp?

Mike,

My MB/System temp is 36C and 96.8F. I think I was comparing "processor temp" instead of "motherboard" temp to others. 36C for a Asus A7V w/ a 1.2G I believe is acceptable, but I'm not sure because I don't know if others are reporting their MB temp or CPU temp.

Does these temps seems normal?

Well, your CPU temp of 61C is a little bit higher for an a7v(but remember that the a7v's in general read a lot higher than other mbs), but your fairly high mb/system temp sorta explains that...

What is your room temp like, and how's the case cooling?

and what heatsink are you using?

Hi.
I have an a7v133 with a 1000@1200 T-Bird wich is also very hot (acording to pc-probe)
Running at 1000 the idle cpu temp is 57C and mb temp is 35C
Running at 1200 the idle cpu temp is 59C and mb temp is 35C
Max temp at 1200 is 64C.
I'm using a taisol CGK742 with artic silver II aplied.

Hmm... the warm mb/case temp is probably causing warmer cpu temp readings. I still think that your temps are acceptable for a7v's, but it isn't a great temp, either.

Hi...on my A7V133 in bios my 1.2ghz tbird reads temp 50-51C....Asus probe will read 59-61C....

So I think you are ok
