[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1530874, member: 110816"] Yeah, as Nick said the temps vary greatly..my iMac for example with an ambient temperature of about 68 deg F runs around 40-45 degC across the various temp sensors..as I crank up a VM and start doing some work, the CPU gets up to the 60-70 degC, but nothing bad.. There isn't a "normal" temperature really..there is, however, a max temp and on these CPUs it's just over 100 degC, once you get to that level and stay there for extended periods of time, you're going to slowly begin to degrade the part and staying there forever will likely lead to failure..
