Need help with temperature please

[zohaibcx]

When when building a new pc when I test the parts and look in bios before putting the mobo in case 

 

Is the cpu and GPU idle 50 or 100 percent load https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/9lljy9/what_are_ideal_dangerous_temps_for_you_cpu_and_gpu/e77uob7?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3

 

I'm talking about this stage in the build process the pre build test at 58:57

Idle temperatures in bios are the bare minimum load, it's typically between 0-10% load. So telling us your temps listed in bios would be more beneficial for us to help than asking what load percentage it is. 

 

What are your temps in the bios?

I'm a bit unclear on what you're asking. Is the confusion over the definition of the word "idle"?

"Idle" is generally used to mean if your PC is just sitting on the operating system desktop, not running a game or any other intensive application. Of course, modern PC's still typically have a lot of stuff running in the background, so the system isn't truly "idle" as in doing nothing, but it will be much much less than even 50% load. It certainly won't be 100% load; 100% load would be the opposite of idle. 

 

If the PC is only sitting in BIOS without the OS booted, then that is as close to truly "idle" as you can get since all of those background applications most modern systems run at startup won't be a factor.

The Reddit discussion you link to is only relevant for Intel chips from 4 years ago, and even then 85C is nothing of a "disaster" at full load, to the contrary it means you use them at their peak performance !

So boot your PC, enter BIOS, wait 2 min, note temps, then boot windows, install HWinfo64, check temps, launch Cinebench 5 minutes, check temps, then come back and tell us what your PC is  and the temps you got
