Description

Question about the expected idle temperature of an Intel® Processor

Resolution

There is no exact information for the idle temperature for Intel® Processors because the idle temperature is changing from time to time. The idle temperature for an Intel® Processor will depend on the cooling solution, the environment where the computer is placed, configurations of the processor, and the running applications on the computer. Generally, in typical system designs the package idle temperature is usually less than 65°C. Intel recommends contacting your specific system vendor for more exact guidance.
