45-50C for gaming? How do you manage to keep it so cool. Mine gets up to 90C easily while playing WoW. For some reason that game gets it really hot, moreso than Crysis.
Got a tip for us?

Ah, my cpu and gpu diode temps are usually around the same temp. My GPU diode temp never gets below 70C, even when I'm doing nothing on my computer.
i keep it cool with this cooling pad

it does an incredible job. highly recommend it if you want to keep you laptop as cool as possible.
That looks like a very good cooling pad. How much was it? I could not find a price on the website.
you can find it for about $40. check amazon just type in Enermax Aeolus into the search bar.
the one above is pretty incredible. its not the quietest one i've used but it is by far the best cooling i have ever seen. i sacrifice a little noise for the cooling power.
If its getting too hot at 6000 rpm, i do believe u have a problem if the original max isnt cutting it
