You can check your CPU temperature by downloading a third-party app, like HWMonitor for PCs and XRG for Macs.
I just installed Motherboard Monitor 5.1.0.4 and my temp sensors came up with 66/143/87 F,the 143 is the Chip Temperature as listed from bios, which leads me to ask is this uncontrolably hot for ...
