I recently got my first modern mobile AMD chip (A8-5557m) I know that on almost all the desktop CPUs the Thermal margin is 70C, I was wondering if this was the same on the mobile chips? I saw in the AMD Overdrive user manual under cpu status it said
"Thermal Margin indicates how far the current operating temperature is below the maximum operating temperature of the processor. When TCTL is less or equal than TCTL_MAX (70 for lidded parts)Thermal Margin is displayed in Blue, otherwise in in Red with Red Boarder"
Does lidded parts just mean desktop chips with heat spreaders?
Any info is greatly appreciated.
