    Hey guys, I received my laptop yesterday and I ran stability test with furmark this morning on 1920 x 1200, 16x MPAA, and Xtreme Burning mode. Is running this for about an hour sound right? I used it for an hour and my temp got up to 70. Also to stress test the CPU, I downloaded OCCT since iaTa recommended this program. How long should i run it for? Do you guys suggest any other program beside OCCT? Thanks
