Hi,I just bought used acer laptop and notices these temps:
Cpu idle 27-40. I think it is ok temp.
HDD - 27. Ok temp.
But motherboard temp is on idle 40-50.When watching movies and browse internet a while it is 65-70. Is it too high for mb temp?

While they are a tad high when watching movies, it isn't really 'high'. You might want to check that the laptop is clean inside. No dust, etc. Since you bought it used, who knows when the prior person cleaned it out, if at all.
