    Hwmonitor shows in cpu follow

    AMD A8-4500M
    Temperatures
    package 90- 110C

    Motherboard 40C
    SSD 30C
    AMD Radeon HD 40- 55C

    I would like to know what does that package means in cpu temperature.
    Does it count CPU + integrated GPU temps together?

    That must be a software error in HWinfo. If core temp temps are 41, shouldn't be cause for any concern.

    By the way, how is the laptop?

    After installed windows 7 everything has went well :). Practiced installing windows 7 with HDD and when SSD came there was no problems at all. Overall Im very pleased with this laptop. Compared my old hp laptop with glossy screen playing dark souls with matt screen is like another game. And how hp's case was hot in multiple areas, instead asus case is actually cold :). And SonicMaster Prerium for True-to-Life sound is actually working. Sounds are much better than without it :) lol.

    EDIT got my hp working again =).

    AMD Chips do no show properly for whatever reason. You have to look at the IGP temp to get the proper reading.
