Okay, so I'm having a lan party and over 8 of my friends (yes, I have friends!) are coming over.

My GT240M is reaching 106C (before shutting down) on tons of games. On Skype, my friend said it could cook eggs.

I don't want salmonella, so if I make an alluminium plate and put an egg on it (cracked of course) will it cook thoroughly at these temps? Will I be sick?

I'm probably going to end up not doing this due to people saying It's the dumbest idea ever.

106C is a bit low for fried eggs, but you should be able to cook them, but it'll take a bit longer.

You've got issues:
1. One little mistake and your entire PC might get fried.
[strike]2. If you put anything that's made of metal against the back of the GPU you'll short it out and fry it.[/strike]

Have fun cooking :lol:

EDIT: Oops, missed the 'M' in the GPU.

Thanks man, I guess I'll give it a try... Running Battlefield 3 Ultra, (1-5FPS) it should heat up my graphics card, and I'll have my friend keeping the temperature steady by Alt Tabbing when he gets temps over 103C+. How long should I keep the eggs there? And I'm fine if it gets shorted out.

As long as it takes for them to look well fried, I'd fry both of the sides just to be sure. It might take a while though, since transferring heat through all the plastic in the laptop isn't very efficient. You could speed up the process by covering all the exhaust ports of the laptop with cloth or something like that.
