Using GPU-Z, my 770M (a bit overlclocked) is between 48-55C idle and up to 92C in Crysis 3 maxed out. I have the Z1 system fans on the lowest though.
I couldn't leave well enough alone... I pulled the heatsink, took out the card, put it in the freezer for a while, and was finally able to knock the shim off (the epoxy becomes brittle when frozen)!
Now I have a good paste job where the temps will drop back to appx 44C at idle after running 3DMARK11. Graphics Score=3799 at default clock on the k4000m if anyone is interested.
@RogerWilco - How are you able to adjust the Z1 system fans?

Nice! I don't use 3DMARK or anything else like that - can't see the point at stressing it like that. I use Fraps and turn on the FPS counter. Do you have Crysis 2/3 to test with?
I believe you can turn the fans up in the BIOS? Not sure, I haven't checked since the build before HP added full power support for the 680M (early-mid last year-ish).
@Chelseaman08
Sounds like it is just a driver issue. Does in only happen in Flight Simulator? That is a few years old now so that could be the issue. I wouldn't worry at all.

I found this product online http://www.alancomputech.com/hp-z1-graphic-cooling-unit-no-video-card-new-671195-001-671195-001.html
Is this the one you need?

Yes, that will be fine. I don't think it has thermal pads on it but MXM cards come with them + they are cheap. They retail from HP Parts in Australia for $212 so that is a bargin.
You can get the same one for the same $90 here too: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Z1-Graphic-Cooling-Unit-W-No-Video-Card-New-671195-001-/390853628667?pt=U...

Hi,
Is anyone knows the Part Number for the heatsink that goes on top of MXM card?
