Hello, when doing something such as playing a game (a more hardware needy game, something new) my Intel Core i5 3320M hits a maximum of 76° C. My idle temperatures are only 31-42°, though. I just want to know if this is bad to do for up to 8 hours every other day or not. It's a laptop of course. I would be hitting 82° if I didn't use a laptop cooler.

I only get this hot with turbo boost turned on, though. I have yet to have it slow down or turn off. It continues to work perfectly fine for hours and hours like this. If you need to know for some reason, the motherboard is a HP 179B.

Thanks.
