I often put the --max to some intermidiary value while choosing the ondemand governor. This ensures reponsive system and acceptably low temp. Alos, 70C could be just fine. Here on AMD with performance governor 75C is idle temp. With ondemand, 60C is idle temp and I do not start getting worried until the temp gets to 90C. liviu@debian-liv:~$ acpitool -t Thermal zone 1 : ok, 63 C Trip points : ------------- critical (S5): 110 C hot (S4): 105 C But I guess I could be morme tolerant.
