I'm converting a ton of video. I've estimated it will take 24 hours to do it. I have a custom built (and I'm only 13!!) Core 2 Duo e6600 oc'd at 2800 MHZ, full load at 63C and 65C.
Will it be safe? I'm using TAT for my temps, and SpeedFan says the same. I've used the throttle on TAT to lower it to 2412 MHZ. Ambient is 30 C, case is 35 C. Several case fans, but running stock cooler.
Tomorrow I'm gonna apply new thermal paste. Other specs: 2GB RAM, Nvidia 7600GT, Asus P5B Deluxe, 250GB Seagate HDD. Thanks for all the answers!

I just checked my output files, and I had been converting at 4x the resolution I wanted! So, I guess this means now it's closer to 6 hours. Thanks so far, everyone!!!!! (except Jessica R)
(and I can't really tell if Aldo was joking or not) :)

Nice rig.
I would say it is safe to run your computer at 65 degrees C for that amount of time. Most computers will crash starting at the 70 degree range, up to 85 degrees. 65 is close to 70, so I would monitor it. SpeedFan is a good free program you can use to monitor your CPU temperature. If you can build a PC, then you can also get SpeedFan to read the right temperature and tell you what is going on. Just check on it every now and then. Good luck

Sorry to say this isn't a very good Idea. If you are not careful you could burn up memory chips as well as processor 63C and 65C is very hot even for a single core chipset.

Hi. 67C is within spec, but if you plan on doing a lot of this, improve your cooling. I use liquid. Actually the max temp depends on your model. Here is a list with max temps. http://balusc.xs4all.nl/srv/har-cpu-int-c2.php 65C looks to be the normal max.

I've done the same with a X2 5000+ with stock cooling and no problems. Shouldn't be an issue.

I would be more worried about O/C speed related errors than the heat.
Keep an eye on it every few hours while you're awake.
If there are no errors, you should be fine.

NO! Dont do it. It is risky business. My mate left his PC on for a day and it went BOOM!
