CPU Temperature

[GxLxxR]

Hello, I have 2 question to YOU. My CPU has 40° temperature and my questions are: Is that good and what temperature should it have

[Sapph]

If this is while idle, it's a bit high. If it is during gaming, it's great.

What CPU do you have?

I guess you have the stock cooler that came with the cpu.
Even for that, it's a bit on the hot side. Try to see if there's any dust accumulated in the cooler and blow it clean.

even with non stock coolers that can be totally normal depending on the motherboard. Gigabyte motherboard for example have a high stock voltage aswell as some Asus and the TIM used between IHS and Die does it's part too. I have higher stock idle temps then this.

The only real question shoud be what the temperature under load is.

That CPU is fine up to 90c +/-. Worry about your temperature when you get close to that. 40c is "cold" for this CPU.

All right Thanks

the t junction for most cpus is 100c. as long as you're south of that, and there's adequate cooling to expel the heat when idle, it should be ok.
