The CPU core temperature is over 110 °C. Is it too high

Are these temperature values below the permissible level?
Best Answer
The max temperature for many CPUs is listed in the 105-110°C range.
But for long-term use, you’re much better off keeping things below
80°C in general and only pushing up to 85°C at the most
To make sure your software is giving you an accurate reading you could compare the results with those of another temperature monitoring application. There are several free lightweight tools to monitor your CPU temperature, one of which is Core Temp.
It would be advisable to check your heat sink to see if it has been dislodged, or that the thermal paste is still connecting the heat sink to the CPU, as running your CPU at that temp is sure to cause damage in the long run.
The GPU temperatures that are shown in your question are not in the danger zone.
61.4 degrees centigrade. Of course, this leaves zero margin for safety, and your motherboard may or may not record temps in half-degree increments. So I'd stick with 60 as a nice round number that happens to give you about 1.5-2 degrees of wiggle room. This would be the maximum upper limit of what your CPU would handle, you'll be pushing the envelope of its design.
If you plan on keeping this overclocked forever and a day, I'd even consider something lower, so that the safety factor involved is larger, say 55 degrees.
And of course, this advice is given with the standard disclaimer that if you cook it by overclocking it, it was your decision, not mine; I'm not responsible for what you do; and you get to keep the burnt bits and pieces.
since there is a bout a gazillion of different Core 2 Duo mobile processors, that cannot be answered with certainty as the thermal specification can vary, e.g. the T9500's thermal design range goes up to 105 degree Celsius.
you can look up the thermal specification for your processor model on Intel's website.
