The temperature of your computer's CPU is very important to maintain your health. After all, as a computer hot spot, it makes sense to stay calm! A processor that is too hot can cause all sorts of problems with your computer. It can drown to stay cold, which means less processing power. In a terrible situation, the computer becomes a BSOD, crashes or even shuts down or restarts.
Processor is too Hot
Therefore, sometimes you should check your temperature. This is especially true if you place your laptop in an overheating situation, such as a blanket or blanket when using a laptop in bed. In this article, we will explore different ways to check the processor temperature in Windows 10.
What Temperature is Harmful or Bad?
Unfortunately, we do not immediately know what temperature is good or bad for a processor. If you see the idle machine temperature of your CPU and you see it at 30°C, what do you think, is it a good or bad idle temperature? What about 60°C, 70°C, 80°C then? People get this much temperature while playing games.
If you want to know the maximum temperature of your processor, search the Web for the specific page of your CPU product and look for the list of maximum temperatures ideal for your processor.
If the temperature in the list is closer to "Maximum Operating Temperature" or "T-Box", this is the temperature at which you should strive to maintain the processor most of the time. If "T-joint" is indicated (as indicated above), the general advice is to keep the objects at least 30 ° below the indicated temperature. (For the previous example, we will try to keep below 70 ° C). However, if your laptop or computer is below your room temperature(or, ideally, for everyone!), At this point it is fine.
Now that we know the temperature limit, it's time to explore how to check the CPU temperature in Windows 10. This requires the help of a third-party program that will help you control the CPU temperature.
The Hardware Monitor
Open Hardware Monitor is an excellent solution to get all the statistics you need in one place. This will allow you to know the temperature of your processor and its graphics processor, the voltage used in your computer and even the fan speed of your system. This makes it a powerful tool that allows you to monitor all temperatures in your system.
You can find the temperature of your CPU in the category with the name of your CPU. This will list the temperature for each core of your processor:
Reading Temperature of My Laptop
Many of these temperature monitors allow you to read the taskbar. This is very useful if you are performing tasks that require intensive use of the system and want to monitor its temperature without moving from one side to the other between the active window and the system monitor. If you want to see the temperature of the processor in the taskbar, right click on it and click on "Show on tray".
If the reading is finally hidden in the "extra" icon, you can drag it to the active main tray. This means that it will always be visible as long as you can see the taskbar.
Core Temperature
If you want something more focused on the processor, Core Temp is a good option when you have to check the CPU temperature in Windows 10. This gives you everything you might want to know about your processor, as indicated by its name, the kernel that Use and, most importantly, the temperature. It will even indicate the T connection limit of your processor, which is registered as "Tj. Max." Above its temperature.
If you want to see the temperature in the system tray, it must be enabled by default. Otherwise, click on "Options" and then "Settings".
Basic settings of the laptop.
Click on the tab "Windows taskbar", then "Enable Windows 7 taskbar features", then "Temperature" and then "OK."

Speccy Diagnostic Tool
Another all-in-one package, Speccy, is a good set of various system diagnostics, including the ability to verify processor temperature in Windows 10. As soon as Speccy is opened, all the relevant temperatures you need to know are displayed, for a healthy laptop. It is also an excellent way to retrieve information about your system. Be sure to get this small tool if you need all info related to your motherboard installed and the processor.
If you click on "CPU" on the left, you will get more specific information about your processor.
If you want the temperature to appear in the drawer, click on "View" and then on "Options".
Click on "System tray", following "Shrink in the tray", following "Display metrics in the tray" and then "CPU".
Now, when you reduce Speccy, you can control the power of your processor when it does something else.
If the previous method guides you to find that your processor is sufficiently burned, do not panic. There are many solutions that you can use to take your processor to a more reasonable level. We published an article about how to cool a laptop that is too hot. Determine if the proposed solution will help reduce the processing time of your processor.
Check the heat
An important part of your laptop, a processor too hot is a problem. However, with third-party applications, you can easily check the processor temperature in Windows 10 and make sure your processor is running as cold as it should.
