Default Temps under load

Hey, I am running CPU Burn-In, and I was just wondering if the temps I get when running that are considered "under load"? Because it runs the CPU at 50%, but while its running it is staying at 56C. Idle my computer is running at 40C. But are the temps with CPU Burn-In running considered load? Also, are those temps safe, 56C load? Thanks for the help.

i assume you are talking about the CPU is your Sig (P4 3.0 GHz), in which case it depends on what the room temp was at the time. But 56 is quite safe but 50% isnt under load techincaly...

I'm just curiuos myself as to what temps are considered "safe". I have an AMD Athlon 64 3200 OC'd from 2.0ghz to roughtly 2.14ghz. Idle runs at like 34 C, and under load around 48 C. Just wondering at what temps should I get a better cooling system for the processor?

Those temps are fine. Right now my idle is 30°C and load is only 42°C(but my room is like 62°F right now). As long as you keep it under 60°C you should be fine.

Hey helmie. I was thinking about getting the big typhoon again, because I know it will work this time. But then I realized, once you put it on there, it's done. You cant switch it to another mobo if you need to (cuz of the foam). So I ordered this: Arctic Cooling. I know it wont cool as well, but if I need to I can switch mobo's, and it's much easier to take off. Sometime down the road I will most definitely try the big typhoon again.

plus That CPU cooling can push hot air toward the rear, to exhaust, because its standing, don't you agree?

those temps aren't bad. As far as safe temperatures, my 820 is around 75C when I have two Pi calculations going on. search for super pi mod and download the program,and tell us the CPU usage and the temps

56ºC isn't that bad...although I would keep an eye on it, and make sure to have an extra fan handy just in case .

56 at 50% is definatly worth keeping an eye on as the 3200+ starts to melt at around 68 I think!
