I placed an order yesterday for the Aura, and I had to do some bragging to a friend. He thinks the graphics might have a problem with overheating. Does anyone know if this will be an issue?

Thanks

I don't have any first hand experience with Aura, but testing and customer feedbacks have shown the temps to be fine.   The only exception was when someone ran a very strenuous test program like Prime 95 for CPU and Furmark for gpu, which is well above most real world applications.     A full size case with excellent airflow would do better in such tests.   

Temps might be higher than a full desktop, maybe, but still well within the safe zone.

congrats! I can understand the concern given the AIO footprint- BUT no complaint of temp issue anywhere in the universe of the internet. I am sure DS has this nailed down.

I agree. I'd believe DS before I'd worry about what "a friend" thinks. They're in this for the long haul and that is one sweet, sweet machine.

Congrats and game on!

I thank everyone for your responses, jealous or not :P. It is helpful. I would have copy/pasted the build but I'm stuck working from a Microsoft surface(sucks) until I get my computer. Aura,i5,8GB DDR4, 1TB HD, GTX1050 TI 4GB.
