I have a Lenovo Z565 laptop with the AMD Phenom II N660 (3.0Ghz Dual Core) and it's pretty excellent. It's fast, the Radeon 4270 is enough to run WoW and Starcraft 2 which is all I need to run on my laptop. It's well put together, the keyboard is excellent and all. I still can't believe it was only $349.99.
Anyway, I do have concerns about temps. It doesn't really have many cooling vents. It has a small intake vent for the CPU Fan, and two relatively small vents near the HDD. Under BOINC WCG or any kind of heavy CPU load, the CPU tops out at about 73 celsius, and the HDD varies from 40-50 depending on load and what it's sitting on. These temps seem a little alarming to me, should I be concerned?
