I have a Core i7 Q740 with a native speed of 1.73GHz. My previous Dell 
had a Q730. Both were exhibiting the same problems.

Since this is a laptop, I would expect temperatures to be higher than in 
a desktop box. So up to 50-60°C CPU temperature while idling and 90°C 
under load may be acceptable. But the behavior the computer is 
exhibiting definitely is not acceptable.
