I was looking at your HW specs. Seems like a fairly new computer, but something that did a huge difference for me, was blowing out dust from the fan outtake. I wasn't able to see the dust visually. You only notice it when you blow it. If you want to try this, please make sure you open the back first, so the dust has somewhere to go. May be worth a shot anyway.
Have you looked at if the CPU itself is prone to high differences in temperature during different loads? Your differences seem quite abnormal. Also, have you googled on if the linux kernel is not handling that CPU well. This bug report was initially about graphic card temperatures, which is separated from CPU temperatures. The two are unlikely to be related. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166916 Title: temperature overheating of cpu and radeon in 12.10 and above To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/1166916/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
