Normal Temp for CPU question.

[Nickyct]

I just replaced my AMD 6000+ CPU Fan with Zero Therm fanless.
I want to know what is the normal temp for CPU while it's running doing normal task.
I'm not overclocking my CPU by the way.
right now it's reading 108F and 109F on both cores respectively.

Thanks

that seems pretty reasonable..thats somewhere around the 40C range. You prob. should not go much higher than that temp then.

I don't think this fanless is working out good. When I was burning movie and surf the internet. System freezes up. and the temp shoot up to like 120F
I guess I have to put my old fan back in.

120F is ice cold for CPU cores, especially for a 3.2 Ghz 90nm X2. You need another hard drive, if you want to do two things that both require hard drive access at the same time. Or better yet, find something else to do for 5 minutes, until the DVD has finished burning.

Yup, 120F (about 50C) is really good, assuming the reading is accurate.

When the system freezes up, does it eventually recover?
