    Hey guys, I'm wondering what kind of temperatures you guys are getting on your m50s

    My GPU hovers around 66-68 idle, 82-86 load. I also noticed that it gets incredibly strained if I hook up another monitor. Are these temperatures normal?

    my GPU is idling around 63 C at idle I'll get back to you with the load temperatures soon. The temp seems to jump 3 or 4 degrees after connecting a second display. I was using a CRT via VGA at 1280x1024 I think.

    nder stress my GPU gets to 82c

    my gpu also idles in the 60-65 C range. it hits 70+ C while under load(UTIII max settings). I've never seen it hit over 80 C though.

    Mine idles in the low 50's and gets into the mid to upper 70's under load. I'm using a Zalman NC1000 also which knocks off about 5 degrees. My GPU is OC'd by about 10%.
