    Ok so this is really weird

    im undervolted and everything btw, and under stress test for 4+ hours i get 62C as my max
    now then, i'm talking about cpu temps here btw.
    So im running a really old game on my laptop show in my sig
    Diablo 2

    in windowed mode
    why do my temps go up to 60????
    is it just me, or is that normal?
    my cpu isnt even stressed, its under around 20% load on both cores on average.

    Is your laptop sitting flat or is the back of the laptop elevated? it thoud be the later option. 62c while running a stress test is pretty good, makes me thing your laptop isn't running the fan much at all when not being stressed, wich would still result in higher temps.

    Cpu temps are "supposedly" rated for 90c, but there is no laptop that should be running that hot.

    105C? Dang! I don't need a gas oven with THAT! :p
    Anyway the 62 is okay. I have seen mine going up to 65 but it was because i block the vent :/. U could try undervolting :)
