In a laptop it's got fuck all going for it and there's usually a bungton of plastic pieces RIGHT THERE, let alone your precious tender flesh. PC components can take heat just fine, it's the plastic casing and your weak and tender flesh you need to worry about. Did your laptop do something bad to you one night? Link to comment

Also known as a preshott. It literally melted a motherboard. Link to comment
