Do you think my PC is overheated?
Lately my PC has crashed a lot. Sometimes it looks softwarerelated (FireFox caused a lot of trouble so I'm trying to use Opera more), at other times I feel like it's a hardware problem.
Because my previous PC had an overheating problem, I decided to install SpeedFan to monitor the temperatures. These are the temperatures when my PC is pretty idle (the only thing I was running was iTunes, FireFox and Windows Explorer):
GPU: nVidia GeForce 8600 GT.
163°F
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
4 cores:
142, 136, 127 & 131°F.
SpeedFan does give a flame symbol for all these, which I assume means it's hot. But my automatic fans aren't on yet, so it might not be too hot.
What do you think? Do I have an overheating problem?
I'll go play a game of SC2 now and see what temperatures it gives me then.
