Full Version: cpu temperature
what tempetaure is a 1.67 gigahertz AMD Athlon XP consider overheating at mine seems to be running at 60 is this to high.
Hi cyber, welcome to SAF
Temp for this processor is within normal range but can be lowered. My Athlon XP2000+ (1.67 GHz) is actually running at 47 oC, but I have an auxiliary fan blowing fresh air into the case, a 4500~4700 rpm CPU fan and a blowhole on the left side of my tower.
My local temperature is now 19 oC (66 F) at 6h50 AM.
Die temperature for AMD processors is 85 oC.

what do you mean by blowhole on tower.
