OK guys...i built my computer today....and i want to know what is the normal temp the MB and CPU should be...


rite now my readings

CPU TEMP: 31 C
MB TEMP: 35 C

is that normal???..oh btw..i didn't do any ocing yet...
 
that is certainly not normal unless you have your air conditioner hitting the cpu. MB temp should be about the same as the ambient air around it (or the air inside the case). Depending on your cooling solution, your cpu temp will probably be about 20C higher than ambient temp (give or take 10C).

Something is messing up with measurements somewhere. See if you can find a way to calibrate whatever you are measuring with.

Anyways, if you are in a hot room like me, mb temp will be about 30c (90f) and cpu temp will be 40-50c. if your mb temp drops 15c, so should your cpu temp.
