Hi

You'll have to look in the manual for your motherboard to see about the temp. for the CPU. Failing that go to the motherboard's web site and see if you download a manual from there.

Mine are running at:

The CPU temp. here is 54C.

I have to wait 5 minutes and then it powers up. I thought it may be the power supply but changing the power supply seems to have made no difference.
