Chipset reaches 90 degrees C when overclocking video card. Bad?
I have a dell d630 laptop with the Nvidia nvs35m graphics card. I can overclock it to 650 core and 925 mem, but the chipset will sometimes get up to 90 degrees C. I only overclock it to play games and I force the cooling fan to run at high so the chipset only gets to 90 for a few minutes at most. Nothing seems to be effected so far. Will it damage anything if I keep doing this?

Not at all. 90 is nothing to worry about. I included a thread below. 80 is usually stock. I don't think you have much to worry about until you reach 100. Happy OVERCLOCKING!

Thats pretty normal, but I would get one of those little $2 fans and a little heatsink for the chipset.

That's way too much heat! Laptops aren't made to be overclocked, they can't be cooled as well as a desktop computer. I'm surprised your case doesn't get too hot to touch if you're generating that kind of heat. You're going to take years off the life of your laptop running that hot.
