  2. Computer cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cooling

    Computer cooling is required to remove the waste heat produced by computer components, to keep components within permissible operating temperature limits. Components that are susceptible to temporary malfunction or permanent failure if overheated include integrated circuits such as central processing units (CPUs), chipsets , graphics cards ...

    A good temperature for your desktop computer's CPU is around 120℉ when idle, and under 175℉ when under stress. What is a good CPU temperature? How to make sure your computer isn't overheating ...

  4. Thermal design power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_design_power

    The selection of a heat sink may end up with overheating (and CPU reduced performances) or overcooling (oversized, expensive heat sink), depending if one chooses a too high or a too low case temperature Tc (respectively with a too low or too high ambient temperature Ta), or if the CPU operates with different computational loads.

  5. Processor power dissipation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_power_dissipation

    Processor power dissipation or processing unit power dissipation is the process in which computer processors consume electrical energy, and dissipate this energy in the form of heat due to the resistance in the electronic circuits.

  6. Operating temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_temperature

    An operating temperature is the allowable temperature range of the local ambient environment at which an electrical or mechanical device operates. The device will operate effectively within a specified temperature range which varies based on the device function and application context, and ranges from the minimum operating temperature to the maximum operating temperature (or peak operating ...

    Furthermore, steep temperature gradients develop quickly should a cooling outage occur; this has been well documented through computer modeling and direct measurements and observations. Although environmental backup systems may be in place, there are situations when they will not help.

  9. Computer fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

    Decreased conductivity means that the PSU will convert more of the input electric energy into thermal energy (heat). This cycle of increasing temperature and decreased efficiency continues until the PSU either overheats, or its cooling fan is spinning fast enough to keep the PSU adequately supplied with comparatively cool air.
