My AMD CPU is 51 Degree C.

is this acceptable? How high is it consider danger?

I am using Alpha Pal35 and I notice 4 pads on the AMD CPU, should I remove it?

I understand that some guys ever toast their CPU before.

I am using AMD 1GZ.


Thanks.

What motherboard are you using, and what bios version? Also, what temp reading program, and what is your MB/system temp?

Asus A7v133 ( not patch yet).
motherboard is 33 degree c.

I just bought board and cpu yesteraday. I operate it with all covers opened. Yet it is so hot.

AMD working condition is from what degree to what degree ??

Your temps are fine... AMD chips, die temp, is rated to 90C(95C for 1.1/1.2ghz chips). Only problem is, on most boards you don't measure die temp.

ao how do i know my die temp ??? the 50 Degree C is the CPU surrounding?

 

[Mikewarrior2]

50Degree reading is the backside-PCB temp, plus Asus' Compensation. to get die temp either do the heatsink-drilled thermocouple method, or a thermistor that contacts core edge method.

But your reading temps are in-line with other Asus boards(the only ones you can even remotely consider comparing your temps too) and are perfectly fine.
