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? [We are driving with Vista an Elite Simulation Solutions PC based flight simulator] MSI 865PE NEO2-FIS2R Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz 800 FSB (4 GByte) Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2 |

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. -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * NEW!

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. "DWP" wrote in message ...

look up the cpu characteristics at intel and check and see.

Acceptable CPU Temperature Range
I had the same CPU and was running ~55C at full load. I believe that over
62C I was getting some errors. -- Dustin Harper http://www.vistarip.com | Vista Resource & Information Page "DWP" wrote in message ...

Acceptable CPU Temperature Range
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 !!
