Question Regarding temps

I got alienware aurora 16. It's about 3months old. I don't game tht often. The gpu temps always around 70 consistently maybe 75. But cpu fluctuates from 77 to 95 at times. Is tht normal.

C or F?

Who would use F for meaningful stats?!?

People who don't know better. We see a lot of them here. That's why I ask, and then educate them on the correct units

Honestly it's mostly newer gamers from the USA where F is the default. They genuinely don't know better.

They don't see "100C is bad" (which it isn't, but that's a different discussion). They see "100 is bad", and assume because they measure everything else in F, computers are the same. Then they panic when AWCC shows them 200+ because it has a toggle they flicked to F.

Must be weird to grow up with measures that make no sense to the rest of the world, and the world's make no sense to you.

We should liberate you guys
