Hey guys. Once again, I have a question about my core and gpu temps. I've recently installed my own custom cooler and I'd like to find out if my max temps under heavy load will be ok for the summer.
My room temp is about 85F maybe a little less. I doubt it will get any hotter this summer because when the 110F temps come along I'll have an AC running to keep it at 85F.
After about 1 hour of heavy duty gameplay, my temps (under the max heading) in HardwareMonitor were as follows:
62C CPU Cores
74C GPU
If that's as hot as they get all summer, I'm thinking that should be ok, but I'd like to hear from the rest of you. Please let me know. Thanks.
Also, if you can let me know a MAX/Caution/Be Aware set of temps so I know that I need to let my notebook cool down if it hits those temps, I'd appreciate it.

For any CPU, the danger zone would be in the mid to high 90 C. You should never go over 100 C with the processor.
Your CPU is actually very well cooled. In fact, your maximum temperatures on both parts are lower than my idle temperatures for my CPU and GPU for my Alienware m9750.
For a GPU, it should be rated at up to 130 C (at which it will automatically turn off to prevent damage). Again, anything above 100 C, you should start worrying, but your system is keeping the temperatures very well under control even during the hot summer, so your laptop is fine. -
Temps looks very good to me, my max CPU under similar room conditions without cooler (lifted up the back) is just short of 65C.

Cool. thanx guys.
Also, I forgot to mention that my notebook is hooked up to an hp docking station which, due to the location of the port, raises the temps. If I unhook the docking station, the GPU goes down about 8C and the CPUs go down 5 or 6C. Guess the cooler's doing it's job huh?
