s96s 8600m GS temps

i'm not sure if somethings wrong with my temps but according to another thread on the forums, 59-60 C is a normal temp for a mobile gpu at idle. At idle I get temps of 66-69 C. Under load during gaming after like maybe 10 mins, it moves up around 84-86 C and almost always caps off at 90 C (never goes passed). It this just because of the design of the notebook?

 

Are you overclocking your video card at all? I get about 60 C and 80 C on load overclocked or not. I have the same video card. However, when I check the threshold temp, it is a whopping 127 C! So I think your card is fairly hot, but not in danger at all. My friend's f3sv idles @ 77, and goes up to 94 on load, but he said it runs fine. I could be mistaken though. It's probably best to call the manufacturer and ask them if that is a safe temperature.

 

yeah i think i'll do that. I want to know what other asus s96s owner are getting on their temps. Let me just say that it's usually always 84-87 C during gaming, but after playing on and off a lot yesterday and running tests left it at a max of 90 C, but never surpassed that.

 

i get exactly what u r getting however, the battery life on this laptop sucks. 1hr 15min?in power saver mode non gaming? can we put a 9 or 12cell in this bad boy?

 

mine says that it can get to to like 2 hrs and 15 mins. Use the use Power4 Gear and play around with it, you should get something longer. I haven't been using the battery much because I don't really need it that much right now. That should make it last longer.

 

hmm,i tried all the options in tha power4gear still same. I am running the battery utility in the bios, i will report back w/ results. I hope i get something after this test. We need more people to give feedback on this laptop

 

I have Z96S, basically the same as S96S with some minor differences. With a 9 cell battery and P4G Battery Saving mode, screen brightness all the way down and wireless and bluetooth turned off, I get about 3,5-4 h running on battery.

 

i know that this is an old subject i dug it up hoping for some answers my buddys c90s is having GPU temp issues and got me concerned. My GPU runs at 75 in Idle and 95 with load but no noticeable lag do to heat nor does it feel like its that hot anyone else with these temps?
