    Just recently I'm starting to get 100' F (around 38' c) on both of my cores... Before that I usually did about 80' F

    My GPU is doing 110' F, but I usually did 90' F.. now the problem with this whole situation is, I'm not playing any games what-so-ever during these temps.. I'm just browsing the net, checking emails, etc..

    What do you guys think? I recently had to come back to my parents house for a couple days due to my car being in repair and job being closer w/ out a ride.. So could it be my environment?

    Anyways are these temps anything to worry about? They do fluctuate, they can go down to the norm, but they usually stay around those temps, give a few degrees, take a few...

    110F??? please tell me what your secret is, i do over 100 all the time even just browsing the web.

    Maybe your misreading your temps???

    Get a program like hwmonitor, and see what they are.

    Or maybe my temps are wrong lol

    Those temps sound normal to me, i usually get those when i leave my laptop in a cold car somtimes i get like 70f lol

    mine is at 30C w/ cooler idle mode. wen i play game i think around 35C and 50C at GPU but i heard it doesnt matter unless it gets to 50C for CPU and 100C for GPU then it will damage

    Well my condo is in Poland, Oh (Almost on the border of PA)... My house I'm staying at is in PA close to Pittsburgh. So The weather is about 30-35' right now in both areas... But one thing I have noticed is, I keep my temp nice and cool at my condo, here, its def a lot more hotter. I just wanted to make sure that those temps are fine.

    yea they are perfectly fine, both the cpu and gpu can handle up to 100C so thats well over 200F lol, sometimes i see the temps and im like its amazing how hot these machines get lol.

    I was thinking of getting like a container filling it up with water freezing it and putting my laptop ontop of it lol

    ya no joke... its unreal.. I do a lot of work on this computer, which requires it to be on a lot... couple things that really get me is 1) the fan is LOUD.. 2) I keep it beside my bed at all times and those 2 blue LED lights, wow, they are bright... they can light up half my bed.

    I think at 100F+, the ice inside the container would freeze within an hour before it got to cool your compy down :)

    Yeah, those are fine. Mines at 75F and 78F right now for the cores, my room is 73F.

    Under normal use, my CPU is 20-22 Celsius. Gaming, it never gets above 40 Celsius.

    I put Arctic Silver on the CPU.
    I raise the back of my laptop about half an inch when I use it.
    My CPU is undervolted.

    does undervolting lower gaming performance?
