hmm....i wonder if it is healthy for my cpu to be running at ~90 degrees Celsius (~200 degrees Fahrenheit)

Should keep your Buds cool

hmm... you could make some s'mores with it...

No, I don't think it's good for it to be running at ~200 Degrees Fahrenheit. :3

That is just a little too hot for any CPU.

What is the CPU/Board and why is it so hot. You are luck not to have a fire.

its a laptop O.O

and its been running this hot since i bought it 7 months ago. Never had an issue with it shutting down nor has it really had any issues at all.

Always runs smooth and snappy even on extremely high graphics games after hours of play.

EDIT: I wonder how hot it gets if i overclock it could it even withstand the temperatures to even be over clocked without adding a cooling system....if its even possible with a laptop.

Intel Processors

The maximum temperature of an Intel processor depends on the model but it normally range from 60-65 ° C for the Pentium 4, 50-65 ° for the Core models and 70 ° C for the Nehalem generation (i3/i5/i7 ). The mobile processors support up to 100 ° C approximately.

•You can have all the necessary information on Intel site:
•http://ark.intel.com/Default.aspx
•For example, the optimal temperature is 62 ° C for the Q6600:
•http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=29765&processor=Q6600&spec-codes=SL9UM,SLACR
•and 72 °C for the Core i5 750:
•http://ark.intel.com/Default.aspx
•Beyond this value, a thermal protection of the system intervenes and brings the processor to its lowest frequency, blocking the CPU ratio to a minimum.
•If the temperature rises again, the CPU automatically shuts off, no thermal destruction is virtually impossible latest processors.


AMD processors
The maximum operating temperature of an AMD processor is determined by the trade reference (OPN) of this processor. The OPN is on top of the processor. Example:
•A X1800 D M S 3 C

This temperature is indicated by the third character from the right of the OPN. This character can take the values S, T or V.

These characters identify the maximum temperature of use of the AMD Athlon (TM) XP: V = 85 º C, T = 90 º C, S = 95 º C.

For the AMD Athlon 64, Athlon 64 X2 (all sockets and all frequencies) and Phenom, it is generally accepted that 60 ° represents the upper limit.

It is, that is why I said it should keep his Bud cool, Hot beer isn't to my liking!

He didn't use the dash "-", he used this thingy: ~

The squiggly means "around." :3

Hold shift and press the key directly under the escape key. XD

~ = around.
