What is the NORMAL TEMPERATURE of CPU,Motherboard,GPU diode?

Question

Motherboard = 50 deg. celsius

CPU = 47 deg. celsius

GPU Diode = 73 deg. celsius

These are my units temp. using Everest Ultimate Edition software.

Please post a positive reply and PLEASE REFRAIN FROM ANY GUESSING, ASSUMPTION AND UNSURE replies...

Answer 1

It depends on your processor and GPU.  Every processor has its own temperature ranges and operating limits (you were NOT specific as to which CPU and which GPU you have).  50 C is typical for a normal Pentium or E, Q type Intel duo or quad core.  AMD can run a little higher around 55 C.  The Intel quads tend to run cooler when you have a 45 nm tech processor like a Q9400 or above.  Anything on a 65 nm processor is going to run hotter.  AMD tends to pull more watts (Intel around 95 Watts), while the Phenoms can pull up to 140 watts, since they are still on a 65 nm die.  

73 C sounds high to me, and you probably have either measured the temperature of the GPU when you are maxing out on games.  Let's face it, playing games stresses the GPU fan.  73 C is NOT a good temperature which means that you have an under rated GPU heatsink fan assembly.  Take a look at your air cooling in the chassis and make sure you have adequate cooling, no pockets of hot air sitting around the GPU, clean the case with a vacuum cleaner of all dust, move cables, ribbons and other things out of the way of the graphics card and install one or more case fans if you don' have any.  As a matter of fact, I always keep ONE SIDE of my cases OFF and in the summer time I use a small desk fan with a clamp on it and clamp it to the chassis of my case (the bar that runs on the top side of the case that holds the PSU in place).  I am doing that right now on a dual core AMD 6400+ and my operating temp is 35 C.  I am not running a high end graphics card, just a standard Radeon card, but even so, my GPU's are down in the 50's, not 70's.  You might consider taking the shield off of the gaphics card (maximum PC mag had an article several months ago on how to do this), remove the heatsink and fan assembly to the GPU and replace it with a better GPU heatsink/Fan assembly.  Of course, this VOIDS any warrenty on the card, but I have done this myself and it significantly reduces the heat on the GPU.  I modified a CPU Heatsink/Fan, which of course gets in the way of a PCI slot, but so what?  Ihave superior cooling on the GPU.  Pull your card and take a look at it and see if you can disassemble the shield with a few screws and take a look at the gpu and see if you can install a different heatsink/fan assembly.  There are kits out there that will do it for you.
