    I was wondering if anyone who has opened up there system knows what kinda of cooling is used for the cpu and gpu? I know each have a fan near them, but I can see copper through the vents at both exhaust points so its there a heat pipe? I'm just wondering, also dose has anyone found a program that can check the cpu temps for these model's so far the only temp readings I am able to get is the CPU and Hard drive with mobile meter. I'm considering over clocking again and won't do it without temps.
