alrighty, i've recently switched to linux, from vista home premium 32bit.
In vista, speedfan and coretemp said that my 1.8ghz dual core processor was idling at 47-50c with the stock heatsink. No overclocks or anything. I knew that was high, so i was gonna go get a new HS. Then, my convert to linux happened (and its amazing!) and, linux is saying that my processor idles at 29-31c. That, i think, should be more accurate for such a low clock processor.
So, are the linux temps right? Or the vista ones?
