Hmm... well "I only heard." sniperrfl1011, if you activate a temperature shutdown thing, you should be pretty safe. So if you have this on, and it overheats/powers off multiple times, you always know you have a problem, most of the time the fan. I don't know much about laptops, but I'm sure there's a more efficient fan out there that cools more than the one you've got now. By the way, creative sig. you do that yourself?
