But yeah, like 95-100°C usually. Not recommended though for obvious reasons. Keep under 80°C.

BEFORE you go and comment please don’t say “just get a new cpu, it’s old and outdated” e.c.t I Do Not Care

So back to the topic I have a intel core 2 duo e7500 at 2.93ghz and it gets to a max of 50 degrees on both cores, is this too hot before it thermal throttles or is it ok

thanks in advance :)

Thermal throttling is usually 100C on most chips but for something that old it might be a bit lower but definitely not 50C low, maybe 80C.

intel's website states a maximum Tcase (temperature on the heat spreader) of 74.1°c.
