    I think the only other way you can go to really noticeably reduce temps is to as redguardsoldier puts it get some form of "outer cooling" lol. When you GPU goes to work in a game or in a benchmark the undervolt won't help that much. It will make the most difference when you are doing basic stuff like browsing/listening to music etc.

    A laptop cooler can really reduce temps. I managed to cut temps under load by 15C on average on the GPU. In my opinion that is worth it while gaming and you will gain additional OCing headroom.

    King on the G50 cooler is good for about 5C with the laptop still assembled, 15C is only going to happen if u have the bottom off it. Undervolting however was a great reduction though I never did it by itself heres with P7450:

    One would argue the zalman is the problem, however its known that the NXT doesnt suit the cooling system of the G50 the air would be blowing against blocked plastic.

    My gpu undervolt doesnt really create a noticible difference but undervolting the T9600 I now have reduces gpu temps by 2C in crysis as the cpu does affect the gpu. In addition to any other cooling thats about as good as it gets. Also I had a 0 degree increase in temps from GS to GTS at the stock voltage.

    Despite the chart the 85C can happen at all stock in crysis as well as it was caused by the cpu heat not the gpu.
