What's a normal C2D MBP Temp?

[stevehp]

subject says it all. Right now I am hovering about 49-52C...

I just put Fan Control on my comp and these are the settings I chose - how do they sound?

Base: 2600RPM
Low: 49C
High: 80C


Thanks!

I'm at 55C while on safari, amsn, itunes playing music and doing an 8 gig backup to an external drive.

thanks...My temp hasn't changed much since my last post, but I just want to make sure I am not working the fans too hard by having them set to a minimum of 2600RPM.

Mine is at 61 right now, which is much hotter than I would like, with minimum programs running.. It does that after I run the computer for a while. Usually it is in the mid to high 50s... I have the fan control set to base at 1800, low at 58 and high at 78... All I'm trying to do is prevent the fans spinning at full speed, and it seems to do that.

The fans will still go to full speed under any bit of strain...

Mine is at 50-54ºC with safari, airport-wifi, itunes singing,messenger and word-excel-powerpoint. Fans runs at 1800-2000 no further, and I have been running my MBP for almost 5 hours.
