I have a Fanmaster that has 4 thermocouples and can control 4 fans. The one temp reading that I am wondering about is the chipset. The thermocouple is taped to the top of the center of the chipset and it can run at about 40°C while idling and doing light computing. However, when I run DVD copying and other heavy computing (Prime95 etc) the chipset goes up to 50°C. Is this too high?
BTW - the CPU idles at 30°C and will go up to about 40°C.
