    The temperatures on my asus g1s (all celsius):

    IDLE (low batterie settings)
    55-58 on cpus
    62-65 on gpu

    IDLE (high performance settings)
    66 - 70 on cpus
    63 - 67 on gpu

    LOAD (high performance - playing elder scrolls IV - oblivion after a few hours)
    80 - 90 cpus
    85 - 92 gpu

    Some notes, at first I used to download drivers only from asus sites, with the gpu drive I downloaded there the gpu used to heat a little more... Also, when it reached abou 85 it dropped performance drastically, fps dropped to 2 - 3, unplayable, alterning to desktop and setting to low battery until cooling down wold help.
    Than I downloaded the nvidia site gpu drive and the gpu heat lowered down, also, I did not have any performance drop on heats.

    On my view since the performance doesn't drop anymore it's supposed to be ok? Oh, also, the fan only activates maximum speed on 82 - 83. At least look like so. Also, considering I rarely turn my computer off, and the temperature of the ambient being 25 - 30.

    Anyway, is it overheating or not?

    Wondering if this temperatures might damage my computer anyhow.

    You mean the gpu drivers? 174.74, found information in that forum latptop2go something like that that this would be the most stable and the less heater driver on all versions which have been the truth about the heat subject, can't tell about stability since i have not tried any other drive... And considering that previously with the asus drivers the only widescreen resolution that used to fit on my notebook was 1650:1050 and with this drive I have more widescreen options than regular ones... 8D
