Ok, from reading different threads about heat and how hot a computer should get. I have the 5500 with a lapcool2 underneath it.
With the 6600 go video card turned on and looking at the NVIDIA temp readings, I am getting:
GPU core Temp : 55C and 67 C during a game
Ambient Temp : 47C and 59 - 60 C during a game
Are these readings ok, or am I running hot. I saw on one thread that your CPU doesn't want to exceed mid 60's. Is that my Ambient Temp?

and the game runs fine. I'm really not sure what happened that one day though.. I use max settings with the only real thing turned down is shadows (as that's the only thing that seems to lag me a little.) The past couple days no problems running at all. I've played hours straight and no performance changes.. at least none unless you pay extremely close attention. In fact today I zoned through ALL of the major cities that my old comp would lag an insane amount through on Minimum settings about 5 times per each town which is bout a total of eh 25-30 times and no performance issues. After I logged out though, my computer was tired. It opened the internet page slower and just seemed a little more draggy then normal. Only time this has happened, as normally I can leave that game and everythings still running top notch. Temps. on Graphic Core were bout 59. So I definetly don't have an overheating problem. 
Oh and I just checked my temp. After 5 hours of gameplay and it was right after gaming..couldn't be a more accurate reading of 62c.
