Hello all
I have a gigabyte p34wv3 (gtx 970m and I7 -4270hq). I've had it for a month but have just now started to game and record temperatures. Honestly, I know a lot of people will gawk that I'm using a laptop to game but I'm constantly on the road and a desktop is not feasible for the moment. Anyways, when I'm gaming (Planetside 2 and Civ 5 mostly), the cpu temperatures are getting around 97 degrees Celsius and holding there constantly. I haven't made ANY modifications to this computer and I have the fans turned up as high as they can go. I know that laptops are made to handle more heat but this is crazy. Even while just web browsing temperatures are approaching 80 Celsius. Should I be concerned? Also, how if I shouldn't be concerned, what can I do to reduce thermal throttling?
Thanks!
