    I know that most Nvidia/ATI Mobile/Non Mobile GPU's starts throttling and prevent overheating at around the 95c-100c range to protect our systems using Furmark 1.8 Hot Like Hell Edition.

    I wanna know what is the throttle threshold on the m11x gt 335m because after running Furmark Hot Like Hell for at least 30 min, the temperature only went from 45c stock to 62c.

    I have not found it yet. I push my gpu pretty hard during bfbc2 or mw2 and it never slows. However when I bench in 3dmark06 I have found that my cpu clock at anything over 605 causes dll errors. my max gameplay settings are 600/890/1400. Later, StevenX
