    Yeah, me version of the laptop is the FHD screen insted of the HD + 3D, but this is not relevant here.

    My laptop works pretty fine, when I am not playing Medal of Honor or BRINK, because my laptop shuts down when I play this games for like, 20 minutes.
    But when I play Crysis, and this is game is more heavy than the Medal of Honor, the laptop doesn't shuts down! I can't explain why.

    Someone know how to fix it?

    Edit: Yeah, I already have all the updated drivers from nVidia and ASUS. My GPU is the GTX460m 1,5GB GDDR5.

    What are your temps while gaming? Best would be making a log file.

    60~65C.

    I think it's low for a notebook GPU.
