Hi there
I have a Pentium-M @ 1.73Mhz. Computer model HP nx8220. Distro is SuSE 10.1 with kernel 2.6.16.21
For now it's summer and I don't have a thermometer for ambient temperatures.
But I can tell you that in idle mode, my CPU stays at an average of 52º C and under load it reaches 75º C, this in summer and in a very hot place (about 30º C ambient temperature). Oh, and when the computer is running on bateries, it gets cooler and the ventilator stops running. I'll post the temperatures for this later.
For your information, Pentium M's maximum temperature or thermal ceiling is 100º C. So far, mine only went to 85º C before I sucked a dust ball out of the ventilation shaft, so be careful with dust.
Anyway, valuable information for posting info in this topic is:
- processor model
- cleaned ventilation shaft
- plugged or unplugged from AC
- ambient temperature
- idle cpu temperature
- loaded cpu temperature
All the best to you
