    wondering if programs like folding@home or einstein@home and the 5160 mix well. how much control in the bios and intel/nvidia utilities do you have over the 2630m quad cores and the 540m gpu? after the few temps that have been reported, i'm wondering if i should upgrade my notebook cooler. i currently have notebook cooler s from antec which is a good option for the np2092. since i don't have np5160 yet, anybody have experience with any distributed networking programs and the load temps of the np5160?

    I do BOINC on my desktop. Soon as I get my new laptop I may try it out and see how things go. Haven't gotten my NP8130 yet so can't answer your questions.
