I don't know what a GPU is, but my laptop gets hot enough to burn my legs. :(

You can check your temperature by either by using Everest or I know if you have nvidia, you can download tools for free that will tell you your temperature.

I have an ATI 4870. It can get up to the boiling temperature of water. At sea level.

I'm equipped with an ASUS GeForce 9800GT on an Asus P5Q-E mobo with the EPU Engine. It cools the box very effectively (Five fans doesn't hurt either). I haven't seen anything over 55C, even running Vanguard SoH.
