    The cpu and hdd look normal, but I'm not sure about the idle temp of 61C on the 8400M GS (as my Go 7200 idles around 50C). Perhaps someone with the same gpu can post their idle temp......

    EDIT: What is your current BIOS version? F.51 updates the fan algorithms so the unit runs cooler.....

    Your temps are still in the usual range.

    You can improve your temps by getting a cooling pad and/or undervolt

    No there are no third-party BIOS's AFAIK. If you have the latest one, then thats it.

    Read the undervolting guide in my sig for more info
