What are safe temps for CPU , GPU , DIMM , HDD??

Are these temps arlgiht???
All in celcius
Idle Temps
CPU 30
Core 1 21
Core 2 22
GPU 42
DIMM 55
HDD 34

Load temps (Max temps i can get to ,Gaming , moving files ect)CPU 51
Core 1 35
Core 2 36
GPU 54
DIMM 66
HDD 53

Lowest temps (This worried me a little)
CPU 18
Core 1 3 (Somtimes this drops below -3 so i think its a bad reading)
Core 2 1 (Somtimes this drops below -6 so i think its a bad reading)
GPU 41
DIMM 30
HDD 30

I get those low temps when i leave the pc running for a while and the fan is set to 100%... When the cores say they go below minus it must be impossible

Now i overclock when 3d apps are open... this worried me as my DIMM temperature reaches in excess of 66 degrees , this is worring i think and i hope this is a bad reading... I wasnt sure if this was the Graphics memory reading or my actual memory reading as i can touch the compartment where the normal memory is and its only slightly warm...

So i wanted to check that this was alright or i need a cooler pad or somthing??? I think ym cpu temps are very good even though the miss read for the cores... I use speedfan but ive tried other apps and they report the same temps (By the way i clicked enable dell notebook temps on my laptop as its a dell notebook so i get about 5 more readings)

 

i get 65ºC in each core when gaming, and people say it is ok

 

Im mainly worried about the DIMM temp though ...

 

I'm not positive on the DIMM temp to be honest, you don't usually hear much about it, and I've never actually looked into it. Everything else seems be perfectly within reasonable and safe ranges though.

 

Hmm , I dunno , Its just worrying me a bit but ive got my damadge warranty anyway and they say it covers it so im set...
When i try and load notebook hardware control it says object referance not set to an instance of object... I have no idea how to fix it and ive searched the forums , people say they clear the acpi folder but that wont fix it , ive tried to reinstall net framework 2.0 , that didnt fix it... i dont know what more to do.. I cant see what to change in the settings file to disable acpi...

 

dont be, the entire system is running well.

memory is small and un heatsinked (usually) in notebooks, so it's perfectly normal for it to be at that temp.

Oh, and the processor is most likely not getting - temps, it's just a mis reading. Alot of notebooks don't give proper temp readouts unless you can find them in the BIOS.

 

Yeh , i assumed the Standard cpu on its own and just read that , I included the core temps just so see your guys opinion although i guessed they were wrong...

 

Ok , I just touched the system ram while its running (Just the tops of the chips lightly , i know i shouldnt but i wanted to check... and they are cold to the touch , so its got to be the vram that the temp is coming from , im guessing the gpu is right next to it so the temps are being pushed up from that

 

Ok yea, a couple things.

Your DIMMs are fine, that's a very normal temp, even my desktop's memory averages 76 load, it's not anything to be worried about.

Ok, and about touching the ram while it's running, well that for one is a really bad idea, if you don't shock the hell out of yourself, you could potentially destroy the motherboard if they accidentally pop out while it's on, corrupt your hard drive, or destroy the ram from the natural oils on your fingers.

There was even a recent case of someone dieing from touching the internals of their PC while it was running, but that was a desktop, still the same pricipal.

 

lol , I knew the risks of toutching the ram... But i cannot die from it lol ,

Remember it only consumes like 1.2 volts ... the human body can withstand like alot as long as its no-where near the heart... So i cannot damadge the vpu ram , Thats good i really would hate having to talk apart my whole laptop as its very difficult to remove the mmx module. The capacitors on the psu can sure give you a hefty shock...

Thanks though , When you rep somone how does it work??? whoever helps me fix the notebook hardware control thing gets a rep...

lol, my point is that while I highly doubt that you'd kill yourself touching the system ram, it's not technically to impossible to get some the oils on your hands to touch a part of the motherboard and trigger a capacitor to go off and surge electricity through the part your touching. The 1.2 volts in being converted from a higher current through a capacitor, if it short circuited there's that tiny chance, all I'm saying!

To give rep click the "scales" icon under the poster's name on that particular post. (LEFT)

Do you have any more info on that particular program that you're using, if it's dell specific I couldn't help you as I only own a dv9500t and a sager 5791, and can't use dell specific programs.

 

I dont have the option to give rep ... Notebook hardware control is the program that you like undervolt your cpu with... but it wont run on my laptop because of this object referance error... if anyone can help id really appreciate it

edit: oh i found the rep thing

 

You need to download the Dell specific version of NHC.

Omg ,lol thanks sooo much , + REP

 

well i really am worried about my laptop. I've had it for a month or so and lately i have seen some troubleshooting. My GPU temp used to read 50-55 C when idle, when playing wow 80-90 C and gears of war it got up to 96 C. But lately ive been playing for a very long time and i havent been shutting down the pc, only put it in sleep mode. Now i get readings of up to a 100 C while in wow and at idle at 64 C. And today i was playing Need for speed and during some scenes i can notice some distorsion on the graphics, while i was playing guitar hero 3 it started to lag when in some parts of the songs and during a brief session of gears of war it became really slow. Please can anyone tell me if i already screawed up my video card? by the way it's nvidia 8600m gs. And also two weeks ago i upgraded to forceware 163.44.

 

What laptop is it? I'd recommend you try cleaning out the vents and getting a notebook cooler.

 

I'm scared. During hardcore gaming, my gpu temp reaches up to 84 degrees C. When idle, it hovers between 51-55 degrees. Is that normal for a geforce go 7600 or am i killing it?

 

That's normal.

 

I can't give you any solid numbers here, but this is what happened to a friend of mine:
He had a PC tower with a Pentium D 2.8Ghz and a GeForce 6600GT. On a particularly hot day, indoors was probably in excess of 35C, he was playing on his PC for hours on end and actually managed to fry one of his 1GB DIMMs... Take that for what it's worth. Different DIMMs have different build quality, but I'd still have to say that if indeed 66C is the correct reading, it's getting pretty darn hot (I'd definitely say it's in the danger zone), especially since DIMMs aren't actively cooled in any way.

 

I get around 95 C (GPU), and maybe 70 (CPU) (during games), and that's said to be "normal" for the Zepto 6x24...

 

Get intel's thermal analysis tool. it is more accurate than anything else at reading CPU temperatures.
