Post your temperatures here!!

Post your notebook model, CPU type and the temperature analysis software.

I have a S1 pro with a c2duo T7200
CPU idle: 43-45 Celsius
Cpu load: 55-60 Celsius
HDD: 25-30 Celsius

I use intel thermal analysis tool for the CPU and speedfan for the HDD, since speedfan only gives me the temps of one core.

I think that for a core 2 duo the idle temperature of 45 C is a little bit high. Is it normal?

 

not really as my T2300 idles between 50-55oC, since your TDP is higher than mine i would expect yours to be hotter but it seems your laptop has good cooling.

 

I have a Lg S1 pro Express Dual with Core2Duo T5600 1.83 Ghz and my HDD is Fujitsu with 120 GB ,5400 RPM and my temperature after all day with the laptop on is : CPU = 51 C and my HDD has 41 C....but i saw in idle the HDD get 37 or 38 C and the cpu get 47 or 50....i think this is normal or?

 

Yes, thats pretty normal. Infact, the hard disk seems a little cool. The can withstand high temperatues of 100 C, before any physical damage occurs. The notebook will probably get unstable before this, and turn off itself. Hard disks are designed, so they can endure these temperatures. Normally, 40 C in a desktop hard drive after a couple of years, would result in premature death, but notebook hard disks are built to much more stringent guidelines.

 

Zero ,with the HDD temperature I sent a email some days ago to Fujitsu and they said that my temperature is normal for my HDD...now for example is showing to me 42 C to HDD ....and just i listen music and Internet

 

Yes, hard disk temperature will increase, because it is difficult to dissapate the heat in a notebook. In a desktop, there is always some sort of active cooling, so there is always some airflow over the hard disk. In a notebook, the hard disk is placed ina small space, with no airflow at all. So, heat cannot be lost, or very little is lost through conduction. Also, the hard disk is always spinning, because Windows is always asking for something from it. This means the hard disk is constantly active, which means that it is porducing heat.

 

I know is like this Zero.....but i think this Lg ,have good cooling ...I had in my hands also a Hp or Amilo or Medion...and the temperature from HDD it was allways more then 50 C ....so because of this I bought this laptop(S1 in my case)...it's having a good cooling and not so much noises

 

Ah right, I wrongly read the post . Yes, the hard disk temperature is good, and it appears that your notebook does have good cooling. My hard disk also reaches about 45 idling. It gets warm around the left side, but it is nothing that bothers me. Does your get very warm?

 

no because of this I bought it ...is not getting warm and to my legs i feel it very cool .....like I told you ,i tested the another laptops and they took so warm and always to hear the Fan how is working made me crazy ....like this I'm happy with my Lg finally (after changing 5 laptops in my hands---with test ))

 

My S1 gets really hot in the memory/mini card section when I'm playing Age of Empires 3, F.E.A.R. and other games.. But it doesn't bothers me because when I play, the notebook is on the desk
But it gets really hot.

 

my S1 with 2.0 (dual core 2 / L4) idles between 50-55C and hard disk (160GB) idels between 35-40C
