AMD CPU Idle Temp.

Is 40 degrees Celsius hot for idle temperature?

 

[Proofy]

Which cpu exactly and on what clock?

 

[WiiUMasterGman]

3.5 ghz

Download this and check your cpu temperature with this:

FX- series CPU's have "faulty" core temperature readings at idle.

Bios shows socket temperature, coretemp shows core temperature.

^ Incorrect. Using HWinfo will not remediate the issue. You have to use thermal margins as your temperature guide. Anything above 50 is good temps

 

[WiiUMasterGman]

So is 40 low or high?

 

[Proofy]

For idle temperature it's high unless you live in very hot area where room temperature is +28C

what is the cpu temperature that hwmonitor shows ?
