    Yesterday, I was doing some work on my Latitude D610 when I noticed it was getting a bit hot. I checked the temps and discovered it was running at 96C maxed. This machine is undervolted from 1.3560v to 1.2440v.

    I'm not hugely worried, particularly as I'm not going to be using this as my main computer for much longer, but it does seem a bit hot to me.

    That is a tad hot m8. Is that the CPU or GPU? When was the last time you checked or cleaned your exhaust vents? ;)

    The CPU (which is a Pentium M), the graphics card wasn't being stressed at the time.. The computer was opened up a few months ago by a Dell technician and they looked pretty clean.

    I would be tempted to but the Dell technician managed to practically brick the machine (3 motherboard replacements to get it working) when he opened it up so I'm not sure if I should be opening it up myself.
