    what's the GPU, CPU, and HDD temps when under heavy load (gaming specifically)?

    i'm hesitant to get this machine because it has nvidia. i just dont know if the geforce gt 120m overheats like their defective g86 chips. :confused:

    can someone post a HWMONITOR screenshot of the temps here

    thanks

    I think only the 86xx M series and possibly the 9500M GS suffer from this problem as they are based on the g86 chip. You should be fine with the 96xx M series and up
