    How hot does your rc512 get when doing tasks such as..

    browsing
    multitasking
    gaming
    etc

    I noticed ( with HWMonitor ) that my i7 gets in the upper 80's (86-89) when playing Battlefield 3 Beta

    wont display my 525m temps however nor my ram.

    but I find those temps ridiculous 0_0 well this is compared to my m11x which max usually went to like max gpu 60-65 and max Cpu = 55 (75 when i was accidently blocking the fan)

    my pc right now hardcore loading data is.
    39C-44C all across the cores.

    games etc, civilization i think goes to 70C-80C
    its on my lap to

    honestly dont know. i dont play games much, to ADD to.
    but yeah, my pc barely makes any heat. rarely ever, most heat it generates is running AVG antivirus, with resources maxed out. gets pretty hot.

    does your temp monitor list all the components to your 512?

    I think its just battlefield 3 thats pushing my i7 to the limit thats making it go to high 80s

    I hope others post their temps so we have an idea whats the range

    I wouldn't lose sleep about the upper 80's C if under full load. The I5-2520M in my Lenovo T420s gets to 95C and starts throttling if I pile on the load (although ambient temperature is also a factor).
