    What do your guys' SVZ typically run at? I'm starting to worry that since I dropped mine, it's gotten a bit hotter, though I don't know if it's in my head or not. I'm getting around 75 with just Firefox and a few light programs open.

    I get idle temps in the upper 37-41. After running Prime95 to stress test, temps peak out at 77-82-83-80.

    Is anything hogging the CPU? See if Task Manager shows anything.

    Nope, CPU is running between 5-20%. I don't think I've ever seen this laptop at 40. Lowest is like 65 Celcius.
