    Hello everybody! Noob here in need of help lol. :) My asus g53sx gets really hot after gaming . So here is the temperature BEFORE gaming (after startup)

    Operating System
    MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
    CPU
    Intel Core i7 2670QM @ 2.20GHz 46 °C
    Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology

    2047MB GeForce GTX 560M (ASUStek Computer Inc) 47 °C

    Now these are the temperature AFTER 30 minutes of playing LORD of the Rings Battle for middle earth 2, a 6 year old RTS game

    Operating System
    MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
    CPU
    Intel Core i7 2670QM @ 2.20GHz 62 °C
    Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology

    2047MB GeForce GTX 560M (ASUStek Computer Inc) 56 °C

    Optical Drives
    Slimtype DVD A DS8A8SH

    IS THIS NORMAL? Im worried because the bottom part or under my laptop gets really hot after, and Im more worried of this gets hot with a 6 year old game, what about more demanding games like Battlefield 3 or CODMW3?

    PS I dont know if this information will be of any help, but heres the recommended system requirements of the game I just played (Lord of the rings)
    The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II System Requirements and The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II requirements for PC Games

    Thanks people,peace!

    That is nothing dude. Be worried when the GPU gets above 90C or the CPU gets above 80C. Even those temps are ok but could be a little cooler.

    Yes. Run furmark and post the emps of your gpu after about 10 mins. Close furmark if your gpu gets above 95C. run prime 95 with 8 workers and post the max temps here also. Again if temps get above 90 close prime 95.

    It should be fine though. laptops run hotter than desktops.

    Lol this guy must be paranoid. Those are perfectly normal temps after 30 min of gaming within the 60s and even 70 and early 80s celcius range.

    Now if it goes above 90c then that's when you have to start worrying.
