    Can someone please tell me what their CPU/GPU/Hard Drive temps are when playing games?

    Right now my CPU is running between 50c-63c which I don't think is that bad but my GPU is running as hot as 83c. This is all while I'm playing games like TF2 and WoW. I haven't tried the more graphicly intense games because my brother said that he thought my GPU is running too hot.

    Oh, and my laptop stutters every 3 seconds while playing WoW and if I play TF2 for too long then it starts to slow down a bit and stutter... but my Video card has never gotten over 77c while playing TF2.

    The fan on the right side of my laptop was making noise, but it stopped. I'm thinking about taking it in if it starts making noises again but it seems to be working fine and even when it made noises the cpu didn't get above 63c.

    FYI, I'm using Everest Ultimate and RivaTuner while I play in order to monitor the temps.

    Thanks.

    About the Temps, they are normal... Don't worry about them, the 80's are the normal temps for the 8600's while playing... Even harder games like COD4 and Crysis can push them to the 90's if you overclock the cards... Remember, in the SLI1 the 8600's are almost "melted" togheter so they will run alot higher than a single card...

    About the sttutering with WoW and TF2 getting slowdows, i dont know, you should read forums of those games about people having the same issues...

    Good Luck tweaking those games ;)

    Okay, thanks.

    I finally got WoW to stop stuttering, but I don't know how. I just messed with the settings until it was fixed. I'll try the TF2 forums.
