rushbc Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I just got Speccy DLed to my HP laptop just now. This laptop is my only computer, so I have no basis of comparison. But the temperatures displayed are in Celsius ©. According to Speccy, my CPU is at 89 degrees Celsius, which is almost 200 degrees Fahrenheit!!! Can this be correct? And if so, is that normal? 200 degrees F cannot be good for anything electronic, so I have to assume it is actually 89 degrees F, and the C symbol is a mistake? Is my computer about to melt into a pool of molten plastic and metal and silicon? Or am I crazy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred. Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 What processor are you running? some processors are happy to run around 80 degrees C, others will choke and die way before that. -Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is my computer about to melt into a pool of molten plastic and metal and silicon? Or am I crazy? You are not crazy. The temperature readings are Incorrect. It states that my HDD is 216 degree Celsius. To the touch, it is maybe 32 degree Celsius. Otherwise, my whole machine would have melted by now or at least shutdown due to disk failure.
