    Hi! I wanted to collect all the different temperatures from people. You can use the HW monitor tool: CPUID - System & hardware benchmark, monitoring, reporting

    I'm mainly concerned about the CPU temperatures. Mine are around 55 C when browsing the web (at the moment of typing this). The fan is dead quiet. When playing intensive games it will go up to 70-75 C. Haven't reached 80 C yet.

    When I do absolutely nothing, the temperatures go down to 50 C, but almost never below it. Usually they stay between 50 and 55 C. They can go up to 60 C and the fan still won't make any noise.
