Very high temperature !

I have a new mac mini 2011 8GB Ram with Radeon 6630. When I play WoW or the Portal 2. The temperature CPU rises to 85 - 90 degrees. The fan works on 5000 rpm. It is normal? Such loading is dangerous to the computer?

I've had problems with temperatures and burning smells on a 27" iMac. I did some tests today, comparing Snow Leopard and Lion, and found some very surprising results that might explain the differences. I've posted information on my blog:

If you have similar problems, and can post information about your system in the comments, this will help me work with an Apple technician to try and figure out this problem.

  • Mbp late 2014 very high temperature at internet videos

    Hello,
    I bought an MacBook Pro 13" about 3 weeks ago. After some time, I noticed that the Macbook got very hot while watching videos online. I installed "Istat menu" for reading the temperature sensor's values. When i watch videos online (e.g youtube/facebook) the temperature goes up to about 90°C in only a few seconds-a minute. Since you can track apps with higher energy consumptions in yosemite (10.10.1) i looked into the activity monitor and it said the webbrowser (tested with safari and chrome) consumed up to +300 units. If i set the fan to turn on max RPM and hold the MB completely up, i get the temperature down to about 60°C, until i close the youtube/facebook tab completely. Amazon prime video in 1080p works without getting hot at all, even when the Macbook rests on a blanket. Sometimes even spotify (not even playing music, just running in the background) causes high temperatures, but AutoCAD and other programs work "regularly", without the MBP getting hot..
    That circumstances really disturb the useability, because almost cant watch videos at all!
    I ran the "Apple hardware test" (pressing "D" while startup), which did not give any problems/errors.
    Is this a Yosemite problem or a hardware problem?

    Neither.  Some videos will produce temperature in the 90°c range.  That actually is 'normal' and is not dangerous to your MBP.  There are thermal shutdown provisions that will prevent the MBP from committing Hari Kari.  If you wish, get a cooling pad to lower the temperature a touch.

  • HDD with very high temperature

    Hi hp expert,
    I have HP Pavilion dv6-3148el (purchased from 7 months in Italy) that mount hard disk Samsung HM641JI, the cpu temperature is right and the fan is regular (discreet silence), BUT the HD temperature is very high, so I have performed a S.M.A.R.T. test:
    - drive Health is excellent;
    - drive Performance is good;
    - drive Temperature has exceeded 98°C !
    Also I feel a strong heat to the left side of the touchpad just where the wrist rests, and because of that I very much annoyance in its use (and I moan to have bought).
    Someone from HP can help me solve this problem ?
    Or have any suggestions to solve it ?
    Regards
    Daniel

    Yeah, I put a very small amount on, though I spread it out rather than just sticking the HSF on top of it (I've seen different sites say either way).  That temp is in normal mode, though from most tests I've seen even silent mode shouldn't be any worse than the stock cooler was.  Admittedly, my case cooling is fairly average, I'm not terribly keen on spending a fortune on an aluminium box, and I'm aiming for silence here, not overclocking at all.
    While perhaps I'm wrong, I'd be really surprised if it's just "the way it should be" for this cooler, given that it's performing substantially worse than the stock so far, and considering that the temperature spikes up at load within seconds, it just seems a bit odd to me that the case cooling could have an effect so fast.

  • Iphone 3Gs high temperature and low batterie performance

    Hello,
    This is my first question here, so I'm sorry if I doing something wrong.
    About a week ago my iPhone 3Gs is demonstrating very high temperature, at any location (inside my pocket, over my desk e etc...) and situation (it happens even in airplane mode), not enough to a overheat warning dough. And his battery dies in about 1 hour, no matter what I do. I've done a recovery and its came back to normal for 2 days, but after that the heat and battery problem has returned.
    Could any body help me?

    ... I would just run the phone for a couple days without any apps, music, vids, just to make sure it still is working ok...
    Recommended!
    Hot phone and battery drain, cause of both together, is some hardware defect as a micro short-circuit (the phone dropped in water, as example) or an app who have a bug who let it eat all the energy (keep on localization services, as example).
    Let the phone hard reboot, too, to remove any crazy process left in.
    If you still have the issue with nothing running on (please make sure really nothing is on, neither background apps or itunes songs or anything else), most likely is hardware defect and you need service, as pointed above.

  • MSI GTX 560Ti twin frozr II OC high Temperature after RMA

    Hey guys,
                    I have an MSI GTX 560ti Twin Froz II OC card which was giving me weird artifacts on desktop and many random places so i send the card to rma.They replaced it with a same model MSI GTX 560ti Twin Froz II OC card but since i got this card i am getting very high temperatures like it reaches 90-95 C in 10 minutes and keep rising with fan speed 100% in games like Dota 2,Grid 2 and many other games so is there anything i can do to solve this problem.
    My Nvidia Driver Version- 320.14 i have even tried 320 but the same result.

    Any bios upgrade might help?

    its showing me the same version i have checked using nbitor.What do u think can be the problem of temperature rising so fast nearly 90+ in 1 min any guesses? cause my old 560 was working perfectly should i go and rma again?

  • R9 280X GAMING 3G High Temperatures!

    Okay, so I have just installed a brand new R9 280X into my PC.
            When under load, it seems to reach very high temperatures and begins to throttle. (~95 degrees Celsius) 
            Just wondering if this is normal as from what i have read, peoples cards seems to run at about 60-70 degrees.
    Here are my card details:

  • MSI GE60 has very high core temperature when idle

    Hey everyone, my ge60's fan has been making a lot noise lately so i looked into the core temperature and it's around the high 80s (Celsius) when all i'm doing is using the internet for basic things like YouTube, Reddit, Facebook, etc. I haven't had time lately to really play powerful games but now I'm too scared to open one up. What would be causing these high temperatures? I never looked into specific temperatures before but the fan was never this loud until recently. Thanks a lot!

    And if you don't feel good doing what badboy2k is asking, then I would RMA the notebook and let MSI handle it.

  • Satellite P300D-10V - Turn off by high temperature

    Hi!
    I have a TOSHIBA Satellite P300D-10V and I have a problem with overheating! When I load my CPU with 2,2 GHz for a long time, it turn off by high temperature!
    What must be my solution about this problem?
    "Normal" temperature for my laptop is around 70 - 75 degrees cslsius! Is it normal for this CPU?
    I have used another laptop with Intel CPU and there is no such problem! My Toshiba is in use for 2 years! OS Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit
    REGARDS!

    Hi alexander79,
    First of all you should know that cleaning the fan is not covered by warranty!!! Of course you can do this from an authorized service provider but for this service you have to pay, its not free!
    More detailed instructions you can find in this how to article from Toshiba:
    [How to clean the cooling system of a Toshiba notebook? |http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=40]
    As you can read, the notebook should be cleaned every 3-4 months and believe me, you will be very surprised how much dust come out ;)
    Last but not least its also important that you only use display drivers from Toshiba.
    I had also a problem with overheating and this was caused due a wrong display driver (I used the drivers from nVidia page). They are not pretested and dont have an overheat protection The result was overheating and turning off.
    After installation of Toshiba display driver the problem was solved.

  • MacBook Pro (mid 2012) reaches quite high temperatures. Is this normal?

    I'm currently using a mid 2012 Macbook Pro with the 15" high resolution screen add-on (it's the model that was released alongside the new retina versions). The processor is a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7.
    I've seen a lot of claims about MacBooks running at high temperatures, but I've hardly seen numbers as high as mine. I've had my MacBook reach 100 °C (212 °F) up to 105 °C (221 °F) in some situations (such as when compiling software). I've seen 105 °C being reported as a critical temperature at which the system might decide to shut down to protect itself, so I'm worried that this might be an unnatural temperature and that it might be affecting the lifespan of my PC.
    I've also experienced cases where, while being on charge but idle (or running non-intensive tasks such as text editing or watching non-HD videos), the PC would at some point begin spinning the fans to very high speeds and reaching temperatures between 85 °C (185 °F) and 95 °C (203 °F). The aluminum body of the computer gets very hot (especially near the hinge where the screen is attached) and in some cases my fingers can feel the unconfortable temperature even when just typing on the keys. I should note that this is happening during the summer, during which the temperatures outside float around 32 °C (89 °F), but I'm still worried it could keep happening later on during the year.
    My warranty is expiring in a month so I'm wondering whether I should get my pc checked before it's over.
    What do you think about these temperatures? Is there anything I should worry about? Should I contact Apple?

    You can ship your MBP for examination and servicing by contacting Apple, but you will be without the MBP for a period of time.  First determine you warranty status:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    Create a time line of MUST dates for shipping and/or a trip to an Apple store. 
    In the interim, lets see if we can do something positive.  In addition to what I suggested earlier, run an Apple Hardware test:

    You may have to use OPTION D to start it.

  • GTX 560Ti Hawk high temperature and noise

    First of all I want to say "Hi" because this is my first post here!
    Second, I have problems with my GTX 560Ti Hawk! The problems are high temperature and very loud fans! I bought this card less than a month ago and it didn't work properly from the first day but I wanted to give it a chance so I kept it for a while so I could monitor symptoms. I haven't even tried to OC it. I monitored it the way it came from the box.
    In idle card doesn't go over 40°C which is fine by me considering the weather but when I play games it goes all the way to 85°C and it's loud as jet taking off! It's is pretty much intolerable to be near this card when playing games! This product is advertised to be very cold and very silent but now that isn't the case. What bothers me most is that the card was running on open bench table which has very good air cooling ( I made it myself and decreased ~10°C compared to my case). That means that my Hawk would have burned if tested inside the case, or it would fly away!! :D
    Everything is good until card hits 76°C - that's tolerable temperature and the card is still silent, but when it hits 76°C and goes up, all hell breaks loose!
    Card doesn't crash and it runs perfectly (got performance increase ~30% from my GTX 460) but way higher temperatures and noise above advertised makes me wanting to crash it with a sledgehammer! :D
    I RMA it today and waiting for answer which should arrive in two weeks tops (quick when taking money but very slow when support is needed)
    I wanted to ask if RMA is even possible when card isn't crashing??? I RMA cards with similar problems before with no problems but that was Gigabyte - not sure what can I expect with MSI because this is my first MSI product since 2003. RMA should be possible because card has failed to fulfill expectations which are guarantied by MSI...
    If they refuse to send another card or return the money, what should I do???
    Computer specs:
    AMD Phenom 2 X4 955BE
    Gigabyte GA-790XTA-UD4
    2x2 GB DDR3 Mushkin Blackline Stiletto
    MSI GTX 560Ti Hawk (previously owned Gigabyte GTX 460 768MB which never went above 65°C even highly OC-ed)

  • MSI GTX 560 TI OC Twin Frozr II - High Temperature !!!

    Hi, I'm italian, then excuse me if my english is bad. I bought an MSI gtx560ti OC and I've installed it on my pc just three days ago. this is my problem:
    in IDLE the gpu temp is ok: 33°celsius (T° in my room is 25°)
    in FULL with FURMARK stress test the gpu temp is next to 85° after two minutes of stress!!! I read on internet and on the vga's pack that the right temp is next to 68° in FULL !!
    what can I do to solve the problem??? My case is big and there is a 12cm fan on the panel in front of vga..

    as said above, furmark isn't a very reliable test.
    also videocards my act very differently one from another and since your results are still acceptable you shouldnt worry. there are quite a few other cases on this forum with the same "problem" that, as we said, it is not really a big deal.
    in my opinion all that difference in heat between the 560ti's is the stock voltage, some cards have more, some less but it translates in lower/higher temperatures. My gtx 560-ti Twin Frozr II OC for example acts exactly like yours, it's a 1.025 mV stock. I have to bump it up to 1.100mV if i want a stable overclock. However you can always tune a few things end get better temperatures and noise levels. i wrote a post about it not too long ago:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=151819.0
    my last post explains how i managed it.

  • 990FXA-GD65 high temperatures using HardwareMonitor

    Hello,
    Just got this board and I'm overclocking a FX-6300 chip with it around 4.4GHz @ 1.4v, with all the other settings set to auto. Everything seems stable apart from the motherboard temperature that quickly shoot up past 62 degrees at which point occt shuts it down.
    I'm using open HardwareMonitor and I believe the following is true correct me if I'm wrong
    temperature 1: CPU Socket
    temperature 2: MB (about 43 degress idle)
    temperature 3: Mosfets (about 50 degrees at load)
    core 1-6: core temperatures
    Is it the fact I have my NB voltage set to auto? Any idea what's the max this can be set at should I just set it to 1.3v? What is the max temperatures I should be looking at for the MB and Mosfet temperatures?
    Thanks

    Funny mine doesn't have an AUX temp...  however since u said u had a water cooler   I rednecked mine.   I put a small cpu fan(stronger than normal fans) pointed at my regulators and made a port in the side(backside of mobo) where I put another fan directly behind cpu seat and regulators.  definitely helped board temps.
    Your AUX temp has me stumped, wanna say screw it but never know what it is.  Generally CPU is always the highest temp at 100% load so anything above that cant be accurate.  However maybe the regulators on yours possibly can.  If you have no fans on them now and since you have a water cooler you lack the airflow of normal cpu air coolers, i'd say add a fan above the cpu seat pointed to the regulators.  Mine without air would burn me when touching the heat sink(which spans the northbridge and regulators).  with air on them feels warmish.
    Ok just looked at your board and you do have heat sinks on your regulators. deference with mine is my heatsink is one piece with north bridge.  So a fan would go a long way if you don't have one.
    If you have done that then I am out of ideas as far as Aux temp goes.lol
    Got a 200mm fan blowing direct on the motherboard from the side panel + the rear intake is blowing across the motherboard. Thanks for the input I have mind of saying screw it since the images I've seen have that sensor at very high temperatues but really can't fry my board as I have work to do on it. Guess I have to wait till MSI get back to me.
    Cheers
