Hello,

Currently I have noticed that with the warm weather, my motherboard temp is currently at 40 Centigrade. What is the normal for this motherboard and at what is the max temp range for the Z77 Sabretooth Motherbaord??

Would appreciate any advice

Thanks

I wouldn't think those temps are anything to worry about,mines are much the same on idle.

well, my mobo is nowhere near as advanced cooling as the sabertooth, but mine has a temp of temp of 22.0c in a room which is 21.3c

therefore i would suggest those temps are a tad high for such a high end mobo.

Thanks Guys, contacted PCS . I spoke to Matthew, whom was very reassuring and helpful, put my mind at ease. I was told that the temp are fine, and also that as a general rule the motherboard Temp should not be above 15 per cent above the CPU temp.

Taking into account that my system is overclocked to 4.5 ghz and that the Asus Sabretooth comes with a five year warranty with the high end components I should be okay.
