Hi guys sorry to ask I am new to computers but what temperature should an Intel Baytrail M 2 Quad Core 3540 be running at in a laptop? I have an Asus F453M and I get temperatures sometimes in the regions of 70 - 80 degrees + say 82 highest according to the Speedfan program. Is this normal or bad for a new laptop / CPU temperature? I am no techie so I am unsure. Please help. THank

The temperature on a laptop processor can reach high levels, according to the processor specifications, 100°C.

Your report says 70 - 80 degrees, this would be expected.
