operating temperature range

Postby loomex » Tue Oct 28, 2003 5:39 pm

I know that this will be a very general question, but what is a normal operating range for the mainboard and the hard drives? My system is an intel celeron 1.1gig, and I have two harddrives, one a seagate and the other a western digital.
I am sure that there are others that have the same question. I have a program that shows the temp of the mainboard (105.8 f right now) and the one HDD at 102.5f right now.  It does not show me the CPU temp, or fan speeds.
Like I said, this is very general for the benifit of others.

Check the MB's site for temps.
For example; AMD says 91 degrees C is max for Athlon 2000 CPU.

My alarms are set:
86C CPU
75C MB
Current temps:
52C/125F CPU
31C/87F MB ASUS

No readout for HD.

Thanks guys. Looking at your temps, I see that mine are rather cool in comperison. I think since the warrenty is over I am going to cut a hole in the side of the case to put a fan I have in there
