    I've decided to run a few tests to see how it handles the temps.

    SpeedFan 4.32

    Setup:
    Enclosed cabinet with 2 exhaust holes,very little room to breath. I had laptop lid closed and it was connected to my 1080p panel.

    Temps during HD-DVD playback went up to 82C
    When idle <60C

    No crashes, seems to be running just fine

    What are your temps when playing HD-DVD?

    i am using speedfan and it doesn't say which is CPU or GPU (just says Core 1, Core 2), but both were running at around 80C

    Which program do you use?

    82C is a normal temp for 5920's GPU when it operates at full standard speed.
    BTW, temp sensors are quite unprecise so if you have +/-3C from that it doesn't mean anything.
