Just checking my system temps and wondering if they are normal?

Graphics card, GDDR 4, 256mb 2600xt. Standard. running at around 53 Deg C.

Processor, Q6600 running at standard 2.4ghz. At around 50 Deg C.

Both at around idle/light use, they dont increase much with more useage as well.

What are you using to determine the processor temperature? 50c is a little high, if this is an idle temperature. If it's a full load temp, then it's pretty good.

Your 2600XT is running at a desireable temp, nothing to worry about.

Your Q6600 is running too warm on idle especially when it is only at stock speeds. What are your ambient temps? Are you on a B3 Q6600?

For reading temps use something like Core Temp Or HWMonitor Both are a lot more accurate then speedfan. Also if your using the stock HSF those temps are normal.
