Guest Greg Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 Hi there, iv had my laptop sinse feb this year, and have been doing some moderate gaming on it, aswell as using it for work etc. but recently i have noticed my idle temperatures hitting 65 -70C and when gameing (even on very low spec WoW) hitting 88-92 C. My laptop has a 512 Nvidia 8600m GT, with a Core 2 duo 2.4ghz processor. I am just a little concerned because i havent really seen it peak at these sort of temperatures before, even when playing Crysis, COD4 and WOW at a fairly high spec, but what is worrying me even more is that the idle temp is higher than i would have expected. I have reverted my driver back the the one supplied with the laptop 167.59, but this has not made much of a difference. Is it possible that the laptop is just poorly made and il just have to keep my eye on it? is there a recomended drive people know which will give better temperature results? any information would be greatly appreciated. thanks for your time.

Bades Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 it's not badly made. It's just dust clogging up the fan. Use compressed air to clean it out!! That will impove your performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
