Are these Normal, High, Good CPU temps? (e6750)?
I have a Intel e6750 and my idle temps are around 25-27°C. When I'm gaming the temps reach about 30-35°C and when I did a stress test they almost reached 40°C. So, I was wondering if it would be safe for me to overclock my CPU to 3GHz? I would only be raising the FSB and not the voltage so I don't think the temp would raise very much at all... but I want to make sure. I'm using the Abit Guru software that came with my motherboard to check temps so I don't know if these are reliable readings... if not, can someone recommend some good software to monitor temps.
Thanks.

Get speed fan to check you temps. http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php
The temps you have now are good, overclocking it to 3Ghz, would probably raise them to about 35c idle, and 60c stressed.
Hope this helps

Your CPU became in no way at 30°C whilst on. that is 86°F. that is basically above room temperature. If it somewhat became, your temperature sensor is broken or you violated some rules of physics. examine if the followers are spinning or if something is rubbing against them. turn on the pc with the case open and look. do not touch. in case you could not discern it out, basically circulate on. Your CPU will turn itself off before it overheats, so do not hardship approximately warmth injury. that is completely risk-free to maintain utilising it whilst that is warm.

those are great temps. when you over clock you are stressing your components, so accept that you are going to have to replace them sooner...
