    Well i just got my 7915 fx, its awsome, blazing fast and cool design!
    I run wow with all maxed (ultra) and its about 60fps outdoors and 45 in cities which is awsome IMO, but, im worried about the temperatures, i played wow for like 45 mins and my already recorded max temp (gpu) was about 86 C, is this ok? one thing I noticed was the keyboard starting to get warm and a bit uncomfortable, is this normal?
    Thanks in advance for any reply!

    Also about the audio, when I connect my normal stereo audio via the headphone jack, its just wierd...they sound waaay better on my desktop without any equalization, any idea why this would happen?

    Are you using your laptop on a flat surface or on something soft that may be blocking the fans?
