Solve : Netbook CPU - 60C at Full load for 15 min??

1.	Solve : Netbook CPU - 60C at Full load for 15 min??
Answer» Hello all. Today I purchased an Acer Aspire ONE AOD270. It contains an Intel Atom N2600. When I have the computer under a stress test for 15 min (15 min at 100% consumption) The temperatures of the CORES (both) get up to 60C. Is this normal? Or is this too high? How hot can the CPU get before things get damaged? What temp should I begin to get worried? Also, Just for general reference -- Do Laptops run hotter then Desktops? are laptops made to withstand high temperatures?Anyone? Basically, Desktops are easier to cool with forced ventilation. However, Laptops should be designed for lower power consumption. At the present time, Desktops have a slight advantage in cost, heat and performance. But desktops are to large to cray with you. But that is clanging. With the new technologies, a CPU does not have to be hot to be 'hot'. More performance with less power is now available. Having said that, you should take that back to the store for a full refund. That kind of heat and CPU load is way out of line for a brand new out-of-box laptop. You would ERECT the things to start at about 35 C and rise to about 55 C tops. Somebody please correct me. Is 60 C right for anew laptop?

Hello all.

Today I purchased an Acer Aspire ONE AOD270. It contains an Intel Atom N2600.
When I have the computer under a stress test for 15 min (15 min at 100% consumption)
The temperatures of the CORES (both) get up to 60C. Is this normal? Or is this too high?
How hot can the CPU get before things get damaged? What temp should I begin to get worried?

Also, Just for general reference -- Do Laptops run hotter then Desktops? are laptops made to withstand high temperatures?Anyone? Basically, Desktops are easier to cool with forced ventilation. However, Laptops should be designed for lower power consumption.

At the present time, Desktops have a slight advantage in cost, heat and performance. But desktops are to large to cray with you.

But that is clanging. With the new technologies, a CPU does not have to be hot to be 'hot'. More performance with less power is now available.

Having said that, you should take that back to the store for a full refund. That kind of heat and CPU load is way out of line for a brand new out-of-box laptop. You would ERECT the things to start at about 35 C and rise to about 55 C tops.

Somebody please correct me. Is 60 C right for anew laptop?

If it goes over about 70 for any reason you should investigate I guess. You can use Google to find the Intel data sheet (max Tj 100C) and read about the thermal trip which operates at Tj=125 C.
