    Hi. Today I went to the repair shop, to take my G1S from repairs (High GPU temperatures). The only thing i heard, was we can't do anything. Tomorrow, i am returning my laptop to the shop, and I am going to buy a new one. It is the new acer gemstone blue, I never had problems with Acer

    Even with no OC, I get 93c iddle

    Acer has worse heat dissipation issues, imo. I threw away my Acer to replace it with my Asus.
