ThePowerOutage said:Yeah, its a very good temp. One thing though, what's that software called?
I agree a temperature like that is not possible. The temperature can't be below the temperature in your room and I don't think you are sitting in a room with a temperature of 10 degree celsius.Fishaman P said:VERY BAD.
For a regular CPU, that would be on the cold side.
For an overclocked CPU... The heat probably broke the thermometer.
Get a standalone thermometer (not a computer one) install it inside the case, and get a reading from there.
Actually, considering that the clock seems to be downclocked to 800Mhz in that exact moment, and that Canada isn't one of the hottest countries out there, that temperature seems highly possible.Fishaman P said:VERY BAD.

Desktops are safe up to 65-70°C (actually they also work pretty well up to 85°C, but your PC shouldn't really go up there).pikachu945 said:I guess me getting a reading of 20-25c the room temp has something to do with this for sure oh well
can someone tell me a safe idle temp for a Desktop?
