    Running CPUID for the first time and I just want to know if the temperatures are good for it.

    I did this test one second after shuting down Mafia II after some hours of gameplay.

    That's fine for an i7. The most I've seen my i5 get up to was 79C during a cpu stress test.

    @FreddeN - An M11xR1 owner would be proud of you. :D

    My M11xR1 using BIOS A05 ranges from 37 - ~50C.
    My M11xR1 GPU ranges from 40 - ~65C.

    M11xR1 generally run uber cool and even after a 95% CPU use for an hour and a half converting Video formats doesn't phase it with temperatures still in the above range.
