look on youtube as their might be someone who has serviced a latop the same or similar ,but don't undo it if your machine has any type of warranty as opening it will void it ,

as i sort of said in the other post, if you use a vacuum on the air vents you should be ok (as-long as you don't hoover up anything valuable usb sticks and what not)
you will need a small and soft artists paintbrush to gently tease the dust out , but this all asumes your cpu fan is not hidden under the motherboard, as that will require a bit more skill to get to,


he has one already :rolleyes:

to add to what i said, undo the battery first and place in a safe place
post pics here as you go along
I have warranty but it will take me some time to get it to them , I won't risk it I will wait so much but at least it will get fixed

yes it's best to take it to them if it is under any warranty, and yep it looks quite fiddly

you could still use the vacuum on it ;) although to be honest it might not help, but you could try :)

this is getting silly.. you should be able to both hear the fan and feel warm to hot air coming out of the vents.. if you cant it needs to go back..

we are talking both noise and heat.. nether is exactly easy to miss..

Anyone mention to lock fps to 60 with rivatuner yet ?

Also that link I posted sucks heat from the fkn vents to compensate for weak fans...If you even bothered to click the link.

Im using a cooling pad bro , the heat sink is just fine .

Cooling pad is waste of time bro. If you want to get faster dust and hair in your laptop, then continue to use cooling pad.


Have you changed fan speed settings?

There was some programs running on my gpu on idle , they were keeping it at full memory and core clock , so it was running at 58c and cpu was the same . I killed all processes that were using the gpu and the temps were back to normal , on gaming max 83c and idle 30c and im so happy with this . Also now the fans go wild when gpu is at 100% usage and that's very good for me .

still strange how your fan wasn't cranking up :wtf:
6. I can't feel any air flow on 50-70c , when it reaches 80s i can feel a little air flow , not that much .
I need help !
i'm also curious as to what programs you had running in the background (for future reference :pimp: )
