Hi Harry,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, it looks like my CPU Temp of 50c is OK. I have had
a previous computer running much higher. I ran at load up to 65 and nominal at
59c.
I was just interested at what temps other were finding their CPU's
Another reply suggested that the auto off switch for most CPU's these days is
at 90c.
I have had one fail on test at 85c, but it was an old CPU.
Interesting numbers, hope to have some other relies yet.
Thanks again Harry,
