We discussed various ways to implement a solution, but I was mainly worried about the character not accurately displaying where someone is looking. The accuracy of mouse-to-screen is sub-par at best, and you can't accurately follow a target without moving your mouse a couple of meters. That should reduce your wait time.The current implementation of looking through a detached optic in the latest public build had a lot of problems with it. If you ship the RMA to Asus via next day Fedex, and tell them that when you respond in emails to the TI, request that they do the same and return it next day Fedex. Or, if you are still in the return period, and the dealer has a replacement available to swap for you, that would be quicker - but make sure the dealer knows your laptop shouldn't be resold as it has a CPU cooling problem. Register the laptop and file a Technical Inquiry, attach a zip file with the info to the TI, and ask for an RMA.

Under-volting helps if you have a good cooling system, but if you have a paste / cooling issue you aren't going to be able to compensate enough by under-volting to make a useful difference. In fact, it never crashed while at the higher voltage and changing the V, up or down(I tried + and -100mV in roughly 20mV increments), never made a difference to the Stress temps so I set it back to default. Thanks for the reply but my cpu was overheating before I made any adjustment to the voltage. The fan on the LHS of the laptop never comes on, even during gaming, I believe this is the CPU fan. The first photo I've attached is with this reduction in V and you can see the hight temps, the throttling and the processor cache freq is down at 2.49Ghz(I assume this is due to the throttling?). I reduced the core V by 100mV but It doesn't make any difference to the stress temps. When I use the stress tests its more like 96C-98C(I've used a few monitoring programs to verify). My CPU idle temps are in the low 60's deg C. I've, so far, only run the stress tests for 10 mins each time. I've since used prime95, intel ETU and the intel diagnostic tool(which the laptop passes) to stress test and a few different programs to monitor my cpu temps. I've played Alan Wake, HL2 Ep2, Metro 2033 and portal 2 with no problems(all offline while I'm at work), howerver, I downloaded DayZ yesterday and while playing the game, at seemingly random points, the laptop switches itself off with no shutdown procedure. I've only had this laptop for 3 months or so.
