    Hi All

    I just repasted my G73 . Well the temps are 52 idle.
    and i run furmark for 20 mins and here are my questions.

    Furmark showed a max of 84C in ints graph for 20 mins.
    whereas hwinfo32 showed 93.

    is this normal?

    Also in hwinfo my fan speeds are always 30%. didnt bump up to 100% why ?
    when or at what temps do they bump to 100%.

    Hwinfo the % reading is not accurate, but the RPM reading is correct.

    As long as your RPM reading is at ~4500 in furmark, your fan is working fine, furmark shows you the dispIO temp, HWiNFO shows you all 3 sensors + the diode.

    Why doesn't hwinfo show the fan rpm in my G53jw? It only shows the percentage. It was always like that. Any idea?

    The laptop is more silent when gaming after a repaste because it doesn't hit the temps for the fans to kick in at maximum. 4400RPM sounds about right?
