Default Acceptable CPU Temperature Range

Generally considering the motherboard and CPU below in a well ventilated case
with fans on everything, what would be an acceptable CPU temperature range in
your opinion?

Default Acceptable CPU Temperature Range

Pretty much every different version of any CPU has a different acceptable
temperature range. But in general, the cooler, the better; cooler makes it
last longer.

Default Acceptable CPU Temperature Range

I have a very similar box (mobo is the same but a 3.0E cpu) and as I recall
you should worry if the cpu is running near 70C. That is normally a hot cpu
and it will approach that under load. I had to change to a thermally
advantaged case (as defined by Intel) with a full complement of fans a
couple of years ago to keep the thermal characteristics where I wanted (low
40's) under a normal load. It does go higher (probably into the 60's) with
a package like you describe. I suggest that you consider using a Core 2
based box. The thermal management in the Core 2 line is far better than the
Pentium line.

I had the same CPU and was running ~55C at full load. I believe that over
62C I was getting some errors.

38C to 42C is a good range.

Thanks all for your time and assistance. This is exactly the experienced
perspective that I needed to make sense of the technical numbers !!
