    Ripping a DVD.

    1.83GHZ C2D temp @ 156.2F.

    Safe?

    Idle temp: 102-120F.

    According to NHC.

    Thats 68c so its fine.

    Set NHC to celsius, its much more comprehensive for computer hardware and easier to understand.

    Anything up to around 85c is acceptable on notebooks.

    Before I undervolted my C2D, I used to hit 85C after some CS:S action, so it's fine. Now the highest I get is ~75C.
