For those interested AMD recommend for Turion 64 processors that the CPU should be at maximum for no more then 2 minutes (it should be noted what Windows thinks is maximum and what the CPU/Bios think is very different, normally when you see 100% usage in the task manager its nothing of the sort) their official solution is to enable their function which increases and decreases CPU usage automatically and in theory the machine should throttle itself back before overheating, didn't work for me but I do have a now quite old CPU it is time for a new laptop.

ive always found laptops to have crappy ventilation systems for heat dissipation


also laptops were never made for gaming.. Get a good desktop and this will never happen.
