    Hey guys, brother was playing Call of Duty 4 and it crashed twice in row within 5 minutes of eachother and I was wondering if it had something to do with the northbridge. HWMonitor reported the temp reached 74C which in my opinion seems really high.

    Yeah but you have the M1530 from what I see and that has much better cooling than the M1330. Anyone else has some input on M1330 northbridge temps?
