I recently bought an Acer Nitro 5 and I find the hdd temperatures unusual. When I'm watching any 1080p content on VLC the HDD temp is 39-40°C but during any other task or even idle it is 45-46°C. What should I do? *I don't have any ssd, just a 1TB HDD.

Recently my HP ProBook 6555b just turned of with a black screen. Due to the backlight still working, I thought, it might be a motherboard-failure. So I bought a cheap replacement-board from E-Bay and replaced it. And the ProBook started as normal. But now, the CPU is getting overloaded very...

Since most graphics cards are using open air coolers, as they prove to be more effective at dissipating heat, why are there no laptops (that I can find) that use this design in cooling? I know this seems like a silly question, but I'm just curious because laptops are getter more...

So we can all agree that heat can be bad for our gadgets. If a laptop is too hot then BOOM. It's a goner. Okay, my image might be exaggerating. Either way, we don't want to see our valuables fail because of poor ventilation or overheating. How do you handle heating in your laptops? Do you...

My husband recently got an LG smartphone. We bought a vent mount for it but he's wary about using it when the AC or heat are going. Is it safe for the phone to have those temps blowing on it? the design of our dashboard makes it hard to find a dash mount that will work.

So when it is all about heat, and that shall be the only deciding factor, is it recommended to go with a 1070 or a under-clocked 1080? Can a 1080, when throttling it become more heat efficient than a 1070?
