CPU temp went from 40 ish to 50 / 51 degrees c

[Guest]

Hello,
I ws rendering a movie in moviemaker a short 3 1/2 minute video nd whilst it was saving the cpu temperature shot up and sounded like the fan was working harder than usual, i felt the back of the tower and it didnt feel hot.

Is 50 ok it has went back down to 42 degrees c now its just upoading from moviemaker to youtube?

What CPU? But regardless 50C is not a high load temp for any CPU.

Regardless of which CPU you have 50C+ is fine.

What? You expected the temp to go down when the CPU switches from idling to dealing with a load?

use this and look at the temp http://www.hwinfo.com/ and you wiil see it raise when you ask the cpu to work ,50 c is a safe temp .
