    Hey everyone, just had a few quick questions about my new XPS M1530 temps.

    Im using RivaTuner to check temps and OC.

    Idling im getting temps ranging from 60-71 which seams really high.
    During gameplay it ranges from 70-85 which again seams really really high!.

    Im using the latest nvidia drivers for vista on laptopvideo2go.
    I had OCed to 650 core and 900 memory, then i put it back to stock settings but the temps are exactly the same on both settings which i thought was unusual.

    Anyway was just wondering if this is something i should be concerned about? and if so what do you think the problem could be?

    cheers and thanks alot for any advice.

    Your answer. Idle temps do range from 55-64 at times
    gaming will see upwards to the 81-84. Since you did OC don't be suprised to break the 85 mark and stay high without a notebook cooler.

    Bump the other thread, mod please delete!
