G74x Overheating?

I just noticed while gaming that my CPU had a 98 C peak. So I tought that I needed some information.

My first important question is; How high is the max temp on the CPU/Graphics cards?
Also how far can I go with cleaning, I don't want to throw away my warranty.
And yeah.. Help? I dont want to fry my laptop. They're pretty expensive.

That seems fine to me as well. The 98 C was an issue. Those are powerful components in that computer.
I am disturbed because I cannot break my system...found out there were others trying to cope! We have a support group on here, if your system will not break, please join!

That looks normal to me. I don't see a repaste improving your temps.
