    I just upgraded my P-6860FX to a T9300. I'd never previously monitored the heat of the CPU or GPU and was wondering what I should expect. I'm using HWMonitor and I'm not sure what the range is for the CPU and GPU that indicates things are good, or indicating I might have an issue. So far the system is running smoothly and I've had no issues, but I thought I should check. My max CPU temp has been 45C and my max GPU temp has been 75C. Lower by about 5C each with my cheap bottle cap cooling system... :D

    Awesome, thank you for that information. I've been running the system as my main computer for the last few days and everything seems to be running fine. Guess I did it right...lol! :D
