    All the temps look fine except for the cpu temps. I'd have to say that's a bit high for an idle temp. Currently, my gpu is 42 and cpu is 42. I'm just downloading with it right now. (I have an P-6831FX.) I don't think a P-6860FX's temps would vary that much even with a slightly faster processor.

    I'm not trying to scare you, but the surface where your laptop sits can affect temps greatly. I also noticed the stock driver (on the P-6831FX) didn't downclock the gpu when it was in idle. The gpu would idle at 56 or higher. (I'm using 167.58 now.)

    My cpu heats up that much when I'm playing games, but nowhere close to that at idle.

    Cpu idles at 56c gpu at 43c also should note, rmclock shows the cpu running 10c lower than cpu hardware monitor.

    I just added a notebook cooling stand and checked temps. Ran RB6 Vegas at full tilt with the ntune gpu settings at ~600/900. Temps without the cooling stand on maxed at 131F. I turned on the cooler and it dropped immediately to 122F and then down to 113 within a minute or two. If I set the gpu back to stock it drops another 4 degrees.

    I didn't check the cpu since I figured the gpu represents worst case scenario.
