I realize that 75 degrees celsius isn't THAT bad, but while playing a game or watching videos/multitasking the processor goes up to 97 degrees and after a few hours will reach 100 and shut off. I've turned the processor down to 99% max output which turns off the turbo boost, limiting the processor to just 2.0 ghz, but it still gets up to 80 degrees or so while playing a game.
When I first got the laptop it never ran that hot. I realize that games will stress the computer, but even the idle temperature is higher than it should be. Running at 75+ constantly kills the processor faster right?
So what can I do? I have it on an elevated stand with fans on it. I blow it out weekly, but that doesn't do anything. Is there a chance there's internal damage? Do I just use it until it dies? It's our of warranty now fyi.
