You can also download a gadget for the desktop that works with coretemp to display CPU temps on your desktop at all times as well as CPU load ( ).Ī general guide for intel mobile CPUs in regards to temperatures:ġ00C is usually the absolute maximum operating temperature and the CPU will generally shutdown if it hits this temperatureĩ0-95C is usually throttling range, the CPU speed or voltage will be reduced automatically to try to avoid hitting 100CĨ0-90C is pretty typical temperatures for non-gaming laptops under loadħ0-80C is pretty typical temperatures for gaming laptops under full loadģ5-50C are pretty typical idle temperatures when the laptop is not loaded (idle). You can check your CPU temperature accurately with a program called Coretemp ( ). I'd like to add a few other comments to the post above. I'm also trying to talk myself out of buying/building a brand new desktop system for VR gaming so hopefully I can make this laptop work for another year or at least six months. Can I crawl into the 90C range without causing damage? When does the fan kick in gear? The back of my laptop is only about 8-10' away from a window so I can quickly cool the whole system down if I open up said window and allow the 40F outside air temperatures to cool my overall system, but I'm trying to configure 'optimal' settings for year round use. I think 87C is HOT personally, but the fans aren't even running full blast at that level. Question is: What's 'normal' and whats 'pushing it'.

All of this was accomplished using GTA 5 to really push my system. After dropping the CPU to below stock specs, I was keeping the CPU below 80C. With a rather heavy CPU overclock, and moderate GPU overclock, I was pushing my CPU into the 87C range but the GPU stayed in the 77C range. I've been experimenting with overclocking on my Asus G751JY and the one thing I can't seem to find is max recommended 'safe' temperature ranges.
