    Wow... My 9300 idles around 65-70 ... and jumps to around 85-90 when I play Unreal 3.

    What kind of temperatures are you guys getting?

    Edit: As someone else on the forum pointed out. The Nvidia driver for the Z doesn't support powermizer (is that what it's called?) because of Sony's old Nvidia driver. Would that also contribute to the high idle temperature?

    Oh yea, I remembered reading something about it, like the card on T400. Does it work the same way like the Nvidia card on the Z?
