Heat

I have a 5 year old Samsung laptop with an i7 and NVIDIA GeForce GT525M. I've found that when gaming the GPU can only run for around 5 minutes or less at max before throttling down to around 40% after its temperature hits 95° C. Do I have a particularly crapy laptop, or is this pretty common?

In a recent question someone from a small forum asked, regarding laptops, left me quite astonished... The guy asked if the laptop was a good "bang for buck" one, and when I started to look into the details to help him, I saw this: http://www.insys.pt/notebooks...

Hey Guys, I recently bought hp envy m6 x360. I wanted to get a screen protector for it but the vendor advised me not to get a screen protector as it traps heat produced, within the screen and prevents it from escaping. Should I get a screen protector or go with the advise as given by the vendor?

Hello, I have an laptop(MSI CX600X) that only works if I preheat it with a hair dryer, and then let it heat up in bios. If I don't preheat it with dryer, it won't even get to bios, and if I don't wait for it to heat up in bios, it just goes into hibernation, sort of same as when it doesn't get...

I replaced many fans and/or deep cleaned vents, heat sinks, etc. This Toshiba P75-A7200 is the 1st of I've seen of its kind where the seams of the bottom tray don't seem to come apart. The keyboard does not come out and there are no screws hidden under the battery. All the replacement parts...

I have SPEEDFAN installed to check the temp. I dont think its heat related. The laptop is brand new. I really only use it for a couple of hours on Sunday mornings for a church gathering. The rest of the week I dont use it. There arent many documents or anything in it. Its brand new. I live in...

Does a slower processor clock speed mean more battery and/or less heat? (2.7 vs 3.4 GHz) Will a difference of .7GHz make a noticeable difference in heat and battery?

I have done as the last person suggested to heat the GPU very high. I worked. after using it, turn it off, it won't turn on again. I didn't touch for a couple of weeks and did it again yesterday. it worked again. now this time the laptop is on and i will not turn it off. my question what causes...

I have a Acer System Aspire VN7-591G, And I dont know if my CPU temperatures are normal because the highest its gone is 99 degrees Celsius and when gaming it usually hovers around 90 degrees celsius. Also its nearly impossible to keep the laptop on your lap because of the heat. I would just like...

A month (or so) ago I installed to my Sony Vaio VPCEC2M1E, 8GB RAM (after a hell of phone calls with the shop and having my laptop going over their shop to choose RAM appropriate with correct timings), I was thinking positively (for once) that after cleaning its inside dust and doing a fresh...

My old laptop kept slowing down, so I threw an old operating system on it and gave it to a family member. I ended up getting a Surface Book, because the tablet screen works perfectly on a music stand. But, if I run any intensive programs or even some of the cheesy apps on the app store, the...

I have ordered a fan to replace the current one in my np500p4c s05ae laptop. However, do i have to remove the heat sink in order to replace the fan? The screws on the heat sink are very tight and they won't seem to budge.

They are both pretty much the same, but which would be the better choice? What brand would last longer? MSI: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/464433/msi-gaming-series-gs70-6qe-012nl.html ASUS: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/482569/asus-rog-g752vt-gc042t.html
