My laptop cores have been reaching 70-80 degrees Celsius on an Intel B815 dual core processor and its 4 years old, is this a normal temperature for an older laptop?
 
Solution
If the temps have gotten hotter over the years then you may need to apply thermal paste. If they were always like this then it's a design flaw.

Can you try blowing out the dust with canned air?

The laptop has a small fan and a couple vents on the bottom, its exposed because it is on a laptop tray but i never use it on my lap only on a desk.
