    this may seem like a rather off the wall question, but the only place i really have to game on my p180m with 6990's in crossfire is on the desk directly infront of my desktops LCD.

    Do you think the exhaust from the vents on my laptop can cause enough heat to damage this LCD?

    If it puts out enough to do that, your laptop has other issues that need addressing first.
