    Under full load (ran a gpu stability test for 20 min) max temp seems to be about 70-73 c is this too hot? It is overclocked in a dell e1705.

    Mine usually runs around 50 - 60 degrees when idle and maybe around 70 - 80 when running full-blast. The slowdown threshold is 102 degrees, so it's all good.

    That is no problem at all.

    Harddisk: advised: 30-45 degrees. Caution: 45-55. Danger: 55 and above.
    CPU: advised: 35-60. Caution: 60-70. Danger: 70 and above.
    GPU: advised: 50-70. Caution: 70-90. Danger: 90 and above.

    These are rough temps and also notebook temps.

    Charlie :)
