    What area on the laptop would I NOT be able to touch due to it being so hot?

    EDIT: Crap. I didnt phrase this properly. If the gpu on the 7805 got to 94C where on the exterior of the laptop would be too hot to leave my hand on? Im basicly asking where the gpu is.

    EDIT 2: Does it become untouchable at 94C?
