[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1146304, member: 24098"] If they're Flash videos (like YouTube or Hulu), know that Flash is extremely resource intensive, so that's entirely normal. Damage? No. Prematurely wear the fans? Probably. Don't bother with it. The fans are thermostatically controlled and the thresholds are set by the same engineers that designed your notebook. There's simply no need to second guess them. There's a mentality amongst hardware hackers (like those that build custom PCs that are overclocked) that you need to constantly watch the temps and fan speeds. In notebook where the tolerances are much tighter, this is simply not necessary. Let the machine run the way it was designed to and ignore the stats. The kernel is the core of the OS. It is normal for these processes to spike from time to time depending on what you're doing with your machine. Hard to say since it isn't here yet, but if history serves as a guide, then yes, it will run just fine. [/QUOTE]
