Everest Home Edition - Temperature Question

Hi!
I downloaded a program mentioned in another thread.

Everest Home Edition
http://majorgeeks.com/EVEREST_Home_Edition_d4181.html

I'm just wondering at what high temperature setting do I become concerned? New to this stuff, just curious. Thanks!


Mine Currently - According to Everest
Temperatures
Motherboard 42 C (108 F)
CPU 57 C (135 F)
Aux 39 C (102 F)
Maxtor? 44 C (111)
Cooling Fan
CPU 4688 RPM

 

Sorry, I should have worded that as;
Are my computer temperatures ok?

What's the highest safest operating temperature? (Due to lots of user time, hot weather, etc.). Is there a general guidline as to how hot before the computer experiences problems?

I'm not familiar with computer settings, just want to know if my cooling fan is working ok while I'm still under warranty. I'm just curious and trying to learn. Thanks!

 

first off system specs and what type of processor

if it's not a prescot these look dangerously high for the processor, if a prescot you hsould be alright mine idles at 53 or so celcius, the rest is around yours except my hard drive is frying.

 

Hi!
I appreciate your reply. I found this information and did a "copy" and "paste". Does this help you out for information? Let me know where to go if you need anything else, ok?
Thanks so much!


Current Room Temperature 26 C (77? F)

PS
I don't really understand this stuff, so please bear with me.

Ahh, I've been wondering the same thing for some time. I have this program (from the motherboard manufacturer) that automatically shuts everything down if it gets too hot. I haven't seen it in action yet (not hot enough here yet).

Anywho, I've heard that some people use their computers as effective heating. (I'll try that next Winter).

 

lmao
I was looking for ways to try and cut down the upcoming Winter heating bill! It can get pretty cold here in Canada, eh? Must keep the igloo warm.


What's that program called? I wonder if my computer came with something like that? Good to know! Thanks so much!

 

ok go to everest click on mother board then go to cpu click on cpu tell me what it says next to cpu alias also next to original clock

 

Thanks for your reply.


CPU Alias: Prescott
Original Clock: 2400 MHz

 

My Current Temperatures
Motherboard 46 C
CPU 62 C
Aux 42 C (102 F)
Maxtor? 51
Cooling Fan CPU 5273 RPM

 

don't worry bout it I have a prescott too same temperatures just about, your maxtor is like the same as mine too how many gb do you have?

 

Hi!
Thank you!

I found the following, is this the correct information that you'd like?
Pentium 4, 2.4 GHz, 1 GB RAM

So, is "Prescott" a name for the processor? And what is a "Maxtor"?
Just learning the ropes.

 

I have a similar system running temps very close to yours.

CPU 45 to 55 C
MOBO 35 to 37 C
HDD'd 45 to 50 C

I was surprised how hot the HDD's ran, CPU I could understand.

What component exactly is "AUX"? Chipset or Video by chance?

 

A "Maxtor" is the name of your hard drive.

 

Thanks so much to everyone that has replied and helped me out. I'll relax now.
Jerkyking...... I haven't a clue as to what "AUX" means, lol.


Awesome site for all, no matter what your experience is.
With many thanks and appreciation,
Sincerely,
Oooops!

 

AUX is typically auxillary. With sound cards, it could be a second device. In this situation, Aux could be a secondary sensor. Typically the MB.

 

Thank you muchly! Oh my goodness, it must take years to learn all this computer stuff!
