Laptop 168 F? too hot?

[mtb211]

I made a similar thread earlier, but this is not a repeat thread.

Ive noticed that my work laptop is running at 168 F, this laptop is running at 84F, is there anything I can do to cool it down? I already have one of those fans under it, doesnt do much

thx

Matt

Make sure the fans inside it are working first.

The fans are def kicking on, I can turn them on high and low... im thinking maybe the fans are dusty, but i dont think it would make that much of a difference

ahchsoooo the exaust fan is not working, i have no idea how i could possibly fix that

Buy laptop cooling tray to help. Fixing a fan is usually easy if you know how to open the laptop up.

Yah, that is running pretty hot, what are the specs on the lappy, cause mine is around 65c during use...

That laptop you have now, must be some pretty damn good cooling system in there, cause i have never seen a lappy run that cool, but those processors can with stand the heat.

EDIT:That computer is fine, according to intel, it has a thermal spec at 100c, you have quite a ways to go
