    I don't think there is a dedicated thread to this and it's good info for people. I'm just curious to what everyone gets cause mine are weird. Post your temps for idle and under load if you want and what program you're using cause there are temp changes between programs. BTW what is Package under temperatures?? Ambient temp. 78F

    Gaming same for me 92 C. I doubt changing the thermal paste will make much of a difference, the thing just runs hot, and it shares the cooler with the 6770m. Plus you will most likely ruin your laptop trying to get at the paste. Running on intel graphics when not gaming significantly lowers temps.
