Generally speaking, cheesecake internal temperature targets are between 145 °F and 150 °F. With carryover cooking, the temperature will rise another 10 degrees Fahrenheit after you remove it from the oven.

Personally I would shoot for 145 °F. Tack on a few more degrees if you like your cheesecakes well done.

Best of luck.
