    Non-gaming and on the 65:85 power plan, I get ~50-55C internal, 100F around top left (above heatsink), 110F on the heatsink's surface, and 90-100F on the bottom of the laptop near the heatsink.

    It's way cooler than that anywhere else.

    Gaming-

    On 100% CPU, less than 80C when playing for 4-5 hours. I haven't taken surface temps during gaming.
