Everything below 90 is cool.

If that's the CPU temperature then it's running really efficiently, you'd expect up to 100Β°C if you were doing something intense!

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It can't reach 100C, it's a 10 year old Core i3 🀷 πŸ˜‚.

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That means your fans are good then!

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

Yeah, some dust maybe, but other than that, they still work like a caharm πŸ˜‚.

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 30 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's nothing. My laptop regularly reaches 100C doing basic gaming lol.

[–] KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

My gaming PC is steam-cooled.

[–] Octopus1348@lemy.lol 2 points 8 months ago

Not sure if the pun is intended (steam).

Is this a Linux kernel 6.66 joke?

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

No, the 66Β°C was just a coincidence πŸ˜‚.

[–] sir_pronoun@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Maybe we'll discover Gentoo is emitting as much CO2 as China

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's Void, but still πŸ˜‚.

Buddieeees ☺️.

Time to test out that 8 year old thermal paste!

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

It's actually 11 years old 😬, but I changed it a few years ago ☺️.

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

winter is hitting hard on some parts, I see

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

lol 🀣🀣🀣, yeah, I had the window open 🀣.

I need to take this thing apart and blow the dust from the fan πŸ˜‚.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

You might want to replace your thermal paste as well.

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah, of course, no way I'm assembling it with the old thermal paste πŸ‘.

Just out of curiosity I just started building the Linux kernel to see what my system does, but the CPU isn't going over 10% load and is hovering around 40 degrees. I just ran make without any parameters, is there a way to get it to use more than a single cpu core at a time?

Edit: Now we're cooking. make - j$(nproc)

99% CPU utilization at 56 degrees.

Such an understatement for 56C πŸ˜’.

Oh, good, a sane person that uses air cooling.

I have a BeQuiet one on my desktop... can't remember the model though 😁.

[–] callyral@pawb.social 1 points 8 months ago

my laptop is at 56Β°C idle, then again it is summer here

Thermald and TPM

[–] jbk@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

me but while running libsvtav1

[–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

Also when you do x265 encodes πŸ₯².

yt-dlg. It's wxPython based, so it takes A LOT of time and CPU power... or maybe my laptop is just old πŸ˜‚.
