So what is everybody's cpu temp's just curious, i opened mine up and removed was kinda pissed when i saw that my thermal paste on my gpu was dried!!! like even the ati logo from the chip was impressions on to the heatsink, then i found almost little to no thermal paste on my cpu, i mean i wiped the heatsink with a tissue and had to strain to see any kinda coating, so i broke out my lil syringe and applied a thin well covered coat, and it is actually making a difference, almost 5-10 degrees (f) the gpu part really was kinda nerve racking i mean it must have been a bad batch or something to dry like to the point i couldn't pick it off, and to burn the chip impression on the heatsink, but just curious of other peoples temps.

There's been a few of these threads over the months if you care to search.

Mine is somewhere around 55C idle and 65-70C under load. Which is pretty ridiculous in my opinion. The laptop is pretty worthless for anything other than a DTR. Way to hot to have it actually on your lap, and not enough battery to be portable. Thus my upgrade to the Dell

I also noticed the impression of the ati logo, I just think there was NO thermal paste on the gpu, so I did not use any on the gpu, on the cpu I put a good coat of silver paste, and I feel that its a bit cooler
