There is that gird I'm talking about

Open up the case and clean out the dust from the CPU heatsink and fan. I opened a 3 yr old HP laptop recently and thought there was a sponge in there, but it was just dust very tightly packed where air should've been circulating!

This computer is half year old and I cleaned it twice. Temperatures when idle is about 50 when gaming 84 or sometimes more. It has two GPU and not good cooling.. Shame for toshiba

It is not a shame for toshiba. No laptop is built with sufficient cooling for gaming. The only time you are not going to see outrageously high temps in games is if you literally feed Air conditioner air directly into it. Basically lower the incoming air temp.

I had a over heating issue with a Dell I owned and I needed to replace the fan, cost me about $20 through Dell.

It is stock fan. And inside room is now 22C, but fan is always on about 2700RPM. Inside laptop at moment is CPU cores 50-59C. I think it is too hot, when surfing internet
