Hi all, First post Just wondering what temperatures (in centegrade) to expect from an Intel Q6600 GO, with stock HFS. Using CoreTemp. 1. Ruffly what temps under load, should I start to worry? 2. Also what temp does this CPU start to throttle? 3. What temp does it auto shut down? I'm sorry to repeat probably a million others question, but I have heard so many conflicting theories, and not to mention math that makes my head spin. Thanks to anyone who replys.
Idle, I'd say you'd get around 35-40C. Maybe reach up to 50-55C under load with the stock cooler. It's been a while since I read about this stuff but I think they don't become unstable until they're a fair bit above 75C, so I should think auto-shutdown would be around here. I personally wouldn't run one over 60C. Sorry I can't be of more help but I hope this is of some help. Maybe someone would just confirm what I've just said? Matt. I
