Below 73°C.
That's the cpu temp from the RealTemp program (a free utility I use), not an ambient air temp, though.
I don't like using the garage, because the temps vary too much - and in the Summer, it really can get warm in there. Even with thermal monitoring and shutdown in the BIOS being turned on, it puts a strain on all things electronic, and hastens their time before failure. Yesterday, I was looking at a fan that had a listed MTBF (mean time before failure): 100,000 hours at 30°C. 60,000 hours at 60°C, for example. Not that your garage is going to get to 60C, but it shows the effect of higher temps on electronics.
If you don't have a free good temp monitoring program, (there are a few of them), you might want to look into it. Very handy for overclocking.
Does Real temp work in Ubuntu???
lm-sensors work with Debian(2.6.38-2-amd64) on my socket 1366 board, but not[yet] with my 2600k rig, running 2.6.38-2-amd64.
I am jealous! Wish there was some easy way of setting that up!
Opps almost forgot, Mine runs around 79c ish folding. (at the cores)
There is, goto: systems>administration>synaptic package manager>put in your password>setting>repositories and check the boxes universal and multiuniversal close and reload the manager and close.
then goto:applications>ubuntu software center and type in the search field xsensors and install
