The tests were performed in a controlled environment with the temperature maintained at a constant 26°C – the upper-end of the temperature scale for this laptop's likely usage environment. Idle temperatures were measured after sitting at the desktop for 30 minutes. Load measurements were acquired by running Furmark and Cinebench together.
Idle temperatures are exactly where we'd expect them to be for a laptop of this calibre. 50°C is nothing to worry about. With a demanding load applied, the temperatures quickly increase to well over 70°C. The load temperatures still don't show any cause for concern.
This system exposes a problem with nvidia mobile pricing right now. the 7970m is cheaper than the GTX680m and faster, never mind the 670m.
The only issue with the 7970m is the noise and heat it generates. ive heard several laptops using it and they get very very loud when gaming.
I’m quite sure the one shown is the GT780, not the GT70. The GT70 has a very boring design, and the 0nC/0nD are slim.
Either way, it is pretty much my dream machine – 17″ and fast enough for games.
After getting my current 17″, I don’t want to go any smaller, although it’s no good with games.
My bad… I was thinking of the GE range… then again, the GT60’s look like the GE60’s and GE70’s while the GT70 and GT780 look like the GTX683 without the lights. Confusing..

According to a website, the GTX 670M is not a Kepler based GPU, this is still a Fermi graphicscard, bigger DIE, less powerful etc..
GTX 670M = GTX 570M (Bad MSi!!!)
