ok i dont really know what a good temp in degrees farenheit my computer should run at.. basically i need to know what is good and what constitues as running hot. I am not overclocking anything but i have alot of stuff in here so please let me know
 
First of all, the community works in degress celcius, if you talk fahrenheit around here you'll get people complaining.

Anyways, 60 degrees C is pretty much the top of what anyone would run, which equals 140 degrees F. A good operating temp would be around 45 *C ( 113 * F )

i would have if this wasnt stated :D

but yea, if you get 60C load w/o overclocking then it is acceptable yet far from desired
 
i like having my temps under 40c under load. that makes me happy and comfortable. did i mention happy? oh yeh. and it makes me very happy.
 
Wow 60c i didnt think that that high a temp was acceptable. Makes me rethink the idea of overclocking.... Is that 60C case temp or cpu temp? and if it is the case temp what is an acceptable temp on the cpu (I got a p4 not a presscot)
