How hot is too hot for a laptop GPU?

Port is 25% of the way to the surface temperature of the sun.  I wonder what his house smells like?

lol

something like ash I'd imagine

I was thinking of burning silicon, but that works too.

Burning circuitry I'd assume. Burning plastic and stuff smells awful.

my computer used to be so hot that i couldn't touch the metal parts of the design for more than like 1 second

You'll know its too hot when it shuts its self down without too much warning.

I hate it when I overheat while playing Blockland.  My family is always disconnecting the fans to plug in external hard drives and stuff and don't turn them back on.  I always worry that I'm in a standstill lag during the time that the computer is recuperating itself (mostly worrisome around rising lava or anywhere that falling is a major part of the game).

I've never had it do that before, but I certainly dont want it to reach that point
I cleaned it out again today, and the heat is easier to manage now though I'm afraid of how its going to be during the summer when it really gets hot outside

I won't judge your loveual attraction to GPUs.

Once the motherboard starts beeping at you then it's probably getting pretty damn toasty in there. My old PC used to yell at me like a fire alarm because it turned out the fan on my CPU cooler at the time didn't spin properly and couldn't cool my CPU when I tried to play CoD4.

In retrospect that may be the reason why that computer started breaking in ways that defied the laws of science and can only be explained with magic.

Of course, I don't know if motherboards still do this. The motherboard in the PC I mentioned was from the mid-90's  .

If you're able to cook an egg on it, call the fire department.

If it's at that point you could probably skip the cooking an egg part, I imagine the effects would be plain for all to see.

I only get worried when a GPU goes over 80° C. When it goes over 87°, I do something about it.

i consider it too hot when the fan starts running
and there is 4% battery left
