Computer temps

[AlteredState]

Excuse my ignorance here if this is in the wrong forum, but what is a "safe" operating temperature for cpu? my specs are in my signature. Speedfan states that my cpu is running at 31c at idle, and 47c under load. My hdd is at 38c average. ATI tool - Graphics is 41c idle and 66c max so far under load.....

obviously smoke and sparks mean bad, but whats good?

All of those temps are in the normal range except *maybe* the video at full load. If you're not experiencing any BSOD's, reboots or visual artifacts during heavy gaming that's probably acceptable too.

his vid card is fine... GPU run at a higher them than CPUs... its normal to see 50 degress idle and 70+ load
