recently had an issue with my main desktop (one step away from throwing it out the window) and am having to work from home off a laptop. I am hearing the fan rev up and down every so often and I was wondering if the temperature might be an issue. i installed core temp and it says the processor is running around 50C. I know that is fairly hot for a desktop processor but i do not have much experience when it comes to laptop processors. is this an OK temp for it to be at? any help would be appreciated.

The processor is an AMD Athlon II Dual Core p340

50C is very cool for a laptop and pretty normal for a desktop. start being worried when it's 60-65C imo

My laptop hits 80-95c when gaming with a cooler, the design for cooling on it isn't the best(not a lot of cooling vents on the bottom to allow for any cooling device to really work)but its whatever.


It's an i7 @2.8ghz? could be wrong don't use it much anymore.


I really wouldn't worry about a laptop temp unless its powering it self off due to hitting its temperature cap.
