I have a Latitude D830, after upgrading the RAM to 4gb I have been testing and the case seems to get kind of hot. I set up my Fluke meter and put the temp probe on the bottom of the case to the rear of the memory door (CPU area I think). I ran Memtest 86+ test #5 for about 5hrs. The maximum temp was 46.2 degrees celsius on the meter.

A quick reboot and checking FanGUI showed a CPU max of 62 degrees celsius but within 2 minutes it had dropped to about 52 degrees. Does anyone think I should be concerned?

Thanks, Bryan

EDIT: After letting the systems idle for about 6hrs here is what I see with FanGUI.
To be fair though the D830 was in a dock and the C840 was sitting on the table

D830: Pretty constant both cores at 50 degrees celsius. Must be a sweet spot of sorts.
C840: Fluctuates between 50 degrees and 70 degrees celsius.
