    Is this too hot for my laptop? I thought the guide says to try to keep temperate lower than 95F, and this is not running any games atm?

    It is not too hot. There is no way one can garantee not to be above certain temp at all time, once in a while you would see the raise in temp. The question is how quick it is being brought under.

    cheers ...

    I guess it says trial version because I'm using the program "Everest" to check my laptop temperature and the program is only a trial?

    No it's not in the upper spectrum....look at the C vs. F degrees lol...the 90 degrees you mention are Celsius, 90F is VERY cool for a GPU...mine doesn't get lower than 48 when idle.

    Eh, seems alright. My laptop typically sits around 26 C, but then again, my laptop is amazing :p

    Anything less than a 40C idle for the CPU is perfectly fine and even on the low end of things. You're seeing that your cores are around 35, which is a perfectly good idle. What you're reading is that CPU temperatures shouldn't exceed 95C (you have about 95F now, which is completely different). 95C is approximately equivalent to 203F. Just depends what units (Fahrenheit vs Celsius) you want to use - although celsius is the globally accepted standard for computers...

    your CPU is too cool! get it to run some app immediately or it will get frozen!

    just kidding :p

    anyway, that temperature is very nice, it is very cool. you should not be worry unless its started going 85c+ on ambient temperature of 24c. usually, the cpu is rated at about 105c and the gpu 120c.
