Powermac G5: What are normal temperatures?

I recently started paying attention to the temp readouts using a temp monitor. Now im not sure what the normal temps are for my processors, but 180.00F seemed really high. I am running dual 2.7's.
Can anyone tell me what the normal range of temperatures are for a G5 with similar specs? Im not sure if i should be concearned or not..
G5 Power Mac
Dual 2.7g
4g Ram
6800 Ultra
2x 400gb HDD
Thanks so much for any assistance.

Hello all,
I'm using a G5 2,5GHz DP and I recognized also that the CPU temperature was quite high. Also I found the noise of the fans quite annoying. They were spinning up i.e. when opening FileMaker databases over a network or when I was starting an iChat video conference and so on.
Then I found out the following procedure to reduce the temperature of the CPUs and also the noise of the fans:
First download CHUD from the Apple Developer pages and install it.
http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/
After successful installation you'll find a preference pane called "Processor" in the "System Preferences". Open this Preference Panel and activate the option "Allow NAP".
Then please open the Preference Panel "Energy Saver" and there click onto "Options" at the top of the window. Then you'll see a preference for the CPU performance which you should set to "Minimal".
I know that this will cost performance, but if I do really need best CPU performance I can set it to "Maximum". All the time when I just use my G5 for normal office work, it is much more quiet than before. Of course this is not a solution for server or XGrid environments, but it is perfect for offices.
The average CPU temperature of the upper CPU (A) has been reduced from 75° C to around 60° C. The average temperature of the lower CPU (B) went down from around 65° C to 50° C.
Hope this helps.

What are normal business hours for support?

What are normal business hours for Apple Support in the Hong Kong region?
The support page at:
http://www.apple.com/hk/en/support/iphone/contact/
and the phone number, when called, do not specify normal business hours. In fact, the phone number, when called, only says "call back during normal business hours".
Please... are they open on Sunday, Saturday, 8pm, 7pm, ????????

Really kb1951, I did try calling on Saturday, about 6pm. They were closed. But that does not answer my question. And "normal" support lines do address their hours in the recording.
Additionally, if you call at 4pm, even, how does that tell you when they open??? Should I call at 7am, 8am, 9am, 10am, just to get my answer?
You trying to answer my question based on what other businesses do is really a waste of your and my time. As you're just "guessing". I can guess. I don't need you for that!
I came to the support community for a reason - to get an answer, not a guess.

How are "normal" temperatures on macbook air?

How are "normal" temperatures on macbook air?, because during gaming i have 90ºC+ (cpu) and 6500rmp (fan).
the macbook air is new (2 weeks), and have the last version of SMC (2.5f7)
the games are: Diablo 3, Killing floor, starcraft 2, and others. (on minimun settings)

Those games are highly likely to produce those conditions of the temp and fan speed. The Air is not a gaming rig, but still fairly usable with many popular titles. It will run warm though.

What are normal operating temperatures of the i7-2620 in the X220, using TPFanControl?

So I finally got TPFanControl working on my X220 after I really started noticing the fan spinning up and producing high-pitched whine. The fan had begun to remain on all the time, even while on battery with the CPU sitting at 800MHz. I could have sworn the fan remained off a lot of the time beforehand.
So, what are the normal operating temps of the i7-2620CPU? Right now plugged in at "Balanced" speed, jumping between 2.7GHz and 800MHz and with the fan manually set to "7," 4500rpm, in TPFanControl, it shows the temperature at 63C. On battery at 800MHz, the temp goes between 50C and 60C.
CPU Utilization remains at 7% when on batteries, 0-4% while plugged in at idle.
Are those normal numbers? If not, do I have some kind of problem with the thermal paste or heatsink, or dust?

at idle? no my fan is hardly audible at idle.
what you are describing sounds like a problem with the either fan, or improper installation, in which cases you would need warranty.
If you boot the laptop into the bios menu, does the fan come on?

What are your temperatures like?

On my XP1800+, 38-40 idle and 43-44 load with Volcano 7+ HSF and Arctic Silver 3 compound. Is this normal? A friend has temperatures in the 50-60 range with a XP1700+ Volcano 7 on his K7N420-D. I've checked MBM5 readings with BIOS readings and they seem to be consistent. I was thinking maybe one of our boards is reading the temperature wrong?
Case temp is 34-38 with a fan blowing in at the front and a fan blowing out at the back.
Also, is it better to have more air blowing into your case than out of your case, or vice versa? ie. should I put a more powerful fan in the front or back of the case?

Your temps are normal as my board is about the same. As far as the higher temps in your friends system, it could be because of pour installations of hsf, or case fans or it could just be the way his system is, his temps are still well in the acceptable range.
As far as you case fan question, ideally, you should have the same amount of air in and out. That way it is consistently moving through your system. If you have to much coming in, in will heat up and not be moved out quickly enough. If you have to much being taken out, the cold air may never touch a component because it is moving through to quickly.

What are normal Core and Motherboard temperatures

I recently purchased a HP Probook Laptop 4530s. I installed CPUID and it says that the core temp is 56c and the motherboard is 56c is this a normal operating temp?
Nothing left in my right brain, nothing right in my left brain.

""""There's no need to use any fan control software. Besides the software only increases the fan idle speed and has no other impact. The use of it could also void your warranty.""""
first of all.....smc fancontrol does what its supposed to do...cool off your mac....when i boot in to vista and play cod4 on my mac i use fan control...it keeps the temp down....there is an impact to how fast your fans spin.....and it will not void your warranty......it is an extremely usefull tool...it will keep your video card cool when playing games....as i type this iam ripping cd's and noticed the temp at about 56celsius.....i increased my fan speed and the mac is at 37celcius...obviously this works and has a purpose....

What are normal readings

I have been using the CoreDuoTemp app to gauge CPU activity and temperature i have the MBP 2.0 and right now i have typed a yes command into terminal and i get a reading of 70degrees celsius and 100% cpu usage but my "current" value only shows 1000MHZshouldn't that be 2000 given that it is a 2.0, on my previous MBP the 1.83 it would give a current of 1833, when it was maxed
Need some help, this is the 4th MBP from apple, because the first 3 had serious defects that made the computer unusable.
and even after i did all the updates to this one as soon as i got it, i am still getting the super HOT area above the F keys

It sounds like every thing is pretty much "normal" with your MBP. have you read this part for the MBP spcifications page?

Early 2009, 24" iMac: What are normal operating temps?

My iMac overheats and automatically shuts down frequently. Sometimes, just watching a movie on Quicktime causes the CPU to top 80C and cause a shutdown. Fans never run faster than 3500-3600rpm.
Another thing that I noticed, is that the hiutil process runs twice a day using 100% of my processor, and always causes an overheat and shurtdown.
Can anyone direct me to normal operating temps for this model iMac, or advise what may be worng?
This sreenshot displays temps (Celcius) with only Safari running. With uTorrent running (not actually feeding peers), and Quicktime, I get an overheat.

Your temps are somewhat high, but still within acceptable levels.
I would be more comfortable seeing many of the temps in the 40 degree Celsius range.
Your CPU temps are on the high side and probably why your CPU fans are running high.
When was the last time you clear out any of the dust, lint and fine dirt particles from your iMac.
IF you've never done this, you need to completely unplug your iMac, find a heavy blanket or towel to lay your iMac, face down on the soft material. Using a special electronics vacuum, a portable, plug in vacuum or standardnhiuse vacuum with hose and attchments, using either the bare hose end or crvice tool, carefully and slowly vacuum all air intake and exhaust vents, openings and all of the ports to get rid of as much fine dust, dirt and lint as possible.
Do not use a vacuum attachment with brushes. This could cause a problem with random static charges.
Once this is done, re-setup your iMac, plug all your peripherals in and then do an SMC reset by plugging in your iMac to power. Wait 5 seconds, then power up your iMac.
Then report back here with any changes in temps.

Wait, there's more
But nothing LOOKS funny to me either here. But I tell you, opening a file in OpenOffice or sometimes just typing a URL into Firefox takes 10 times what I think it should. It was faster before, too. Not sure what/when it changed.

What are the normal temperatures for CPU, Battery & Memory?

I am just curious as to what the normal temperatures for the CPU top, memory/power and battery are. Thanks in advance for the help!!!

No one has any idea? I am just trying to tell if my temps are normal, becuase something is definitely up with my computer.

Normal Temperature for HP G42 (Intel I3 380M)

This question was solved.

The numbers you describe are high but not deadly high.
Here are some online tips:
http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/technology-blog/keep-laptop-cool-172740363.html
These suggestions are very generic. Try bending out a paperclip and sticking it in the grille to hold the blades. Then blow in some strong compressed air and see if dust flies out. If none of this works, it might help to open the laptop and manually clean out the fan area and reseat the fan/heatsink with new thermal paste. Post back if you want specific instructions on that. If the fan spins faster as the heat increases and then slows down as it cools off and makes no grinding or other weird noise it is probably OK.

Intel i5-3230M normal temperature

HI everyone,
after three weeks of using my new pc HP 15-e059ek i have noticed an increasing of temperature wich is represented by an image below :
http://imgur.com/LbOGuEQ
the first week after bying the pc the temperature was around 33 degres then the second week it was around 36-37 then the third week its 42 degres, so my question is : it is really normal to have this progression of temperature especially the laptop is new ? and what is normal temperature for this kind of processor.
BTW diode PCH :65 degres is it normal also ?
Thanks for your help.

These i7 4770K Temperatures And Voltage Values Are Normal With Z87-G43?

Hello everyone,
I recently upgraded my good old Core2Duo rig and bought a new cpu-motherboard-ram trio. My new specs is as follows:
- i7 4770K @ stock speed + Coolermaster 212Evo cpu cooler
- MSI z87 g43 motherboard
- 2x4 GB G-Skill Ripjaws X 1866Mhz
- Case: Corsair Carbide 400R
The problem is I wasn't aware of that new Haswell cpus are running slightly hotter and now I'm little bit worried about my temperatures. Since I was also planning to overclock my cpu a bit and trying to find a point that doesn't need a vast voltage increase, I'm losing my sleeps over this situation at the moment.
Anyways. I'm using softwares like HWmonitor, Coretemp, Realtemp and Intel Extreme Tuning Utility. Turbo Boost is also active. So the cpu is going up until 3.9 GHz. Other than that I'm on stock speeds, and motherboard's default values. Here are my temperatures:
Ambient room temp: Varies between 23-25 °C
Idle: 28-30 °C
While playing demanding games like Battlefield 4: Max 58-65°C
With Intel Extreme Tuning's stress test for 15 mins: max 65-70 °C
With Prime 95 Blend and OCCT burn tests for 15 mins: max 78-82 °C
I also run realtemp's sensor test and the values are identical since it's using Prime95 too.
I also noticed that Prime 95 and OCCT is increasing my cpu voltage value from 1.156 to 1.21 while Intel Extreme Tuning's stress test and BurnInTest is using 1.156v. All these test are using %100 of the cores. Couldn't understand why there's a voltage increase on certain tests which leads my temps go even higher and higher. Will I encounter these kinds of random voltage increases during normal tasks? Like playing games, rendering some stuff etc..?
On the other hand I tried motherboard's OC Genie future to see what happens. It overclocked the cpu automatically to 4.0 GHz @1.10v. With this setting I've seen max of 70 °C for a second and mostly 65-68°C under OCCT stress test. And also my voltage didn't increase at all and sit at 1.10. I'm a bit confused about these values. Since with default settings I'm getting hotter values and my voltage is going up to 1.21 with Turbo Boost under Prime95/OCCT burn tests. I also found out that my BIOS is v1.0. I don't really have a performance or a stability issue for now except this voltage thing. Does a BIOS update help on that situation? I don't really like to touch something already working OK and end up with a dead board.
Also I'm wondering if my temperature values are normal with the cpu cooler i have (Coolermaster 212evo)?
I also could buy some extra fans for my case (1 exhaust to top & 1 intake to side) and maybe a second fan for the cpu cooler if you guys think that these would help a bit.
Sorry for my English by the way. I'm not a native speaker.
Thanks for all your comments and suggestions already.

Thanks for the reply Nichrome,
I will follow your suggestions for the fans. Currently I don't have any fans on top. But I'm considering to buy some fans to top and side. So you get better results with top fans being exhaust right?
Also which fan are you using as the second fan for the cpu heatsink? I would buy one of these as well since we have the same heatsink.
I'm also using the default/auto voltages and settings at the moment. Just Turbo Boost is enabled and when it kicks in voltage is going up to 1.156. Which seems normal and doesnt produce dangerous level of heat. The thing is if I start running Prime95&OCCT the voltages going up to 1.21+ level at the same turbo boost speed (which is 3.9 GHz). And that produces a lot more heat than usual. But if I use BurnInTest or Intel Extreme Tuning Utility stress test the voltages sit at 1.156 and under full load on all cores. I'm wondering what's the reason of this difference and if it is software or motherboard related. Even with using the OC Genie @ 4.1 GHz temperatures and voltages seem lower than the stock&auto settings (idle 35-38 / stress test with OCCT 70C max, gaming 60-65C max). I'm not sure if a BIOS update would fix this. Since the whole BIOS flashing process is creeping me out. I don't like to bother with something that is already working OK. Don't want to end up with a dead board in the end :P Maybe I'm becoming a bit paranoid though, since this is a really hard earned upgrade after 6 years. :P

What are smart mailboxes and why do i need both smart and "normal" ones?

What are smart mailboxes and why do I need both smart and "normal" mailboxes?

Hi Kingoftypos,
Thanks for that clarification. So, now it appears that the ultimate purpose of a Smart Mailbox is to point to all emails that meet the criteria in a single place, so if they are spread among several mailboxes, you will be able to see them all together. Here is an article from Apple that describes it:
A Smart Mailbox displays in one location messages that are stored in other mailboxes, so you don’t have to move messages between mailboxes. The messages displayed by a Smart Mailbox are based on criteria you define, and are automatically updated to include new messages that match your criteria. For example, you might create a Smart Mailbox that displays all messages found in all mailboxes from a specific sender.
If you change a message in a Smart Mailbox, such as marking the message as read or unread, or moving or deleting the message, the change is reflected in the mailbox where the message is actually stored.
So, adam, I would think that, if you had mail going to a lot of different places, and wanted to be able to see a particular set of those in a single place, you would use a smart mailbox. Maybe use the rules to direct your mail to different places to start with, but a smart mailbox to bring a set of common ones all together into a single smart mailbox?
Maybe you have Rules move your Amazon mail to an Amazon folder and your Apple mail to an Apple folder, but then you have a Smart Mailbox that contains any mail that has the word "Receipt" in the Subject line?
Just a thought....
Cheers,
