Vortex III 15.6" Idle Temps

[jamrud]

I was wondering if anyone had idle temperatures to compare to mine, the laptop seems to run rather hot and loud even when I am not doing anything.

CPU: i7 3740QM, Idles at 50 - 55 C
GPU: GTX 675MX, Idles at 42 C

I am more concern about the CPU temperature, some people on here have said the laptop runs almost silent whilst idle.

I have the 3610qm and 675m and those temperatures seem identical to mine. I'm still not entirely convinced the CPU temps are healthy, but laptop coolers help.

I was thinking of re-seating the coolers with new paste because I've heard PCS often smother the chips in sauce. If not I guess I'll just deal with noisy web browsing.

I saw no improvement regarding idle temps on both when I repasted a couple days ago. Helped massively on load, which is where temps really matter anyway,
