Speed fan Readings

*Edit* Just realised this is probably in the wrong section. Sorry! *Edit*
This is the second time I have to write this because I've just discovered a secret hotkey that closes the page in Firefox. I have no idea what it was either. :(

I'm new to this forum malarkey and was wondering if there are any Speedfan gurus who know what all the temps mean. I have :

ASUS M2N-E SLI Mobo
AMD Athlon 64 x2 6400+ with Xilent Blade cooling
2GB Corsair RAM
Geforce 8800GTS 640
Raptoxx 600W PSU

And my temps are:

HD0: 40C (Obviously this is the HDD LOL)
Temp1: 40C
Temp3: 25C
Temp2: 41C
Core: 43C
Core: 58C
Ambient: 0C

As best I can tell Core (2) is the GPU.

However, why have I only one other core temp when I have a dual core CPU? And are things to hot? I get paranoid I guess but any help would be much appreciated.

    hi,

    A dual core cpu is still on 1 die, ( i think thats how you spell it) so it only gives 1 temp reading, both cores are basically the same temperature.

    yep, core 2 is your gfx, dont worry as gfx get very hot anyway

    mine got around up to 65c! but now i have lots of fans so its around 45

    hdd is fine, there all fine.

    it doesnt do any harm to get more fans ecept its noisier.

    Thanks very much. That's put my mind at ease a little. The danger of things spontaneously exploding into fiery carnage scares me.

    Cheers

    Download CoreTemp for the most accurate reading of your CPU temperature (Both Core 0 and Core 1) and their combined temperature, which is known as "Tjunction."

    Yeah, got it.
    Much simpler and straight forward. It gives idle read out as:

    Core 0#: 35C
    Core1#: 44C
    No readout for TCaseMax though

    I just re-read my post and noticed I forgot to mention that that they were idle temps :( Are they still alright?

    As long as they don't go over 60c, you're good.
