(i7 11700KF) Are those temps normal at idel?!

Are those temps normal when I'm not doing anything at all on my PC?

It looks like you have disabled the low power C states in the BIOS. That means your CPU will consume more power when idle and that will make it run hotter than it needs to. It is OK to do this. Some people like the lower latency and better SSD performance that disabling the C states gives you.

With the low power C states enabled, a similar 10th Gen, 10 core Intel CPU can drop power consumption and temps significantly at the same 5000 MHz that you are running.

I see, thank you

Your temps are fine. This is just me, but I only start to think about worrying about my temps when they sit above 60°C for more than a few seconds. Even then I still have lots of headroom. And typically, if they sit above 60° for more than a few seconds, that generally just means it is time to clean my air filters.

Your idle temps are in my mid 30s. And the max was just 61°C. Those are perfectly fine.

the temps are absolutely okay! beside: the 11th GEN is much more "hotter" then the 10th ever can be. (under load to ~90°C)

abolutely

 

[plastiscɧ]

the voltage is very okay aswell

yes. mid 30s is mine aswell. from cold state is a different sheet of paper

he is doing nothing. maybe surfing etc. u do not know which cooling he has

Never mind i was just trying to understand what ( abolutely ) means.

Joke aside.
Agree with you, temps are ok.

funny!

Hi,
This doesn't look normal

 

[unclewebb]

This doesn't look normal

Just Core Temp misreporting one of the core temperatures. I have compared Core Temp to other monitoring apps and It typically reports most temperatures correctly.

 

[FireFox]

It typically reports most temperatures correctly.

I thought HWINFO was more accurate

 

[Bill_Bright]

Just Core Temp misreporting one of the core temperatures.

Or the sensor is bad. It happens. Best to test with another monitor. HWiNFO64 is also very (if not too) informative. When using for the first time, I recommend you select “Sensors only” when prompted. Then scroll down to see the temps.

I thought HWINFO was more accurate

Nope. They all use the same sensor. It really is not an issue of accuracy, but rather support. HWiNFO is certainly more informative. But I use CoreTemp as my primary real-time monitor too. I just have it set to display the highest temp so I only see one temp in my system tray.

I thought HWINFO was more accurate

Hi,
It does show more information for sure using sensors only.

 

[hakunamatata]

Confirmed, HW-Monitor reporting right temps.

Thanks all for your inputs

 

[Shrek]

Body temperature; nothing to worry about at all.

Hi,
HW monitor is crapware

HWiNFO - Download

 

[hakunamatata]

Hi,

HWiNFO - Download

good, to know .. it least it didn't do what CPU TEMP did

 

[ThrashZone]

Hi,
HWinfo use sensors only check box don't worry about the warning message.
It will show if you ever thermal throttle/.....

 

[hakunamatata]

ok , here it is

 

[ThrashZone]

ok , here it is

Close it all
Reopen check the box Sensors Only.

 

[hakunamatata]

nooo ..

No it isn't. Just because you don't like it does not mean it is crapware.

I too prefer HWiNFO, but it is far from perfect too. See this and note where it is reporting 127°C. Does that make it crapware? No. The fact is, the amount of information HWiNFO reports can be overwhelming for many.

No HW monitor is best at everything. And it is important to note these are all software based. They simply look at sensors the various hardware makers put on their products. And those sensors are cheap, low tech devices that simply express some value as a number. Any software can read that number and convert it to a temp or voltage or whatever.

So why do different programs report different values? Most often it is simply due to different sampling rates and times. Note a CPU can go from cool to overheated in just a few CPU clock cycles. And most CPUs run at 3 billion+ clock cycles every second!

The real problem is there is no industry standard for where motherboard, CPU, GPU, etc. manufacturer will place their sensors, the type sensors or how those sensors will function. Another problem is there is no industry for how different sensors (or the point they are monitoring) are labeled.

So the solution is to use a variety of HW monitors. I use HW Monitor, Speccy, HWiNFO64, TPUs own Real Temp, and I use Core Temp as my real-time solution.

nooo ..

Hi,
lol okay you like the other windows

Still showing a lot of 0c minimums
Looks like you have a bad board.

 

[Arctucas]

Do not forget AIDA64. Although, unlike the others, it is not freeware.

But, to answer the original question; looks fine to me. My 9900K idles at ambient +10°C @ 5000MHz, all C states disabled.
