    How high are your temps? specifically your CPU temps I think mine are a little high.

    Both cores are 68 as im posting this, and at idle they rarely go below 60. It goes up high 70's during heavy tasks, like 3dsmax modelling, etc.

    Im talking high performance mode btw, i dont wanna know your power saver temps, etc. This just seems pretty high to me and am curious to see what others are getting?

    It looks normal.

    My temps are high 60s when gaming in high performance. I don't run high performance unless doing graphics work/gaming, so I don't know my idle temps for that setting sorry :(

    I do know that the 8510p's fan seems to generate A LOT of dust. After a week or two I can see a layer of dust on the whole bottom intake port. So I regularly clean it out to keep the system cooler. Just a suggestion!

    Browsing through these forums and downloading a file, im at 81C, i keep a very clean system, not alot of processes, cleaned with antispyware etc. Pretty concerned with the temps. Even on power saver, the lowest idling temp the cores get to is ~55C. HDD rarely above 35.

    Just ran 3dmark06, while it was running, CPU temps got up 90 and GPU was around 55

    Edit: before all of this, i took off the keyboard and blew out some dust, it was actually pretty clean in there but i sprayed it out anyway.

    From those numbers I'd almost guess whatever monitoring program you're using has reversed the GPU and CPU temps, but I dunno.
