Laptop heating :(

[greyfox1993]

Hi all,
I need help I payed for a laptop with a I5 3210M 2.5GHz and a Nvidea 650m 2GB.
The thing is when I play skyrim on high it gets really hot I have a cooler underneath but I don't know what to do. I put GPU temp on and asked it to beep when it reached a certain Temp and it did 90C. This also happend on Med setting????
Please help

Yes, laptops generally run much hotter than a desktop when running the same application/game at the same settings.

yea the reason its getting so hot is because the air has no way to escape in a case so small... my friend with an alienware mx14 or something (which has 2 fans at the bottom to keep it cool) has had is cpu get so hot that the computer shut down. That was just after 2-3 hours of us playing battlefield 3 together.

What is the max temp of my Geforce 650m??

try to keep your gpu around 80C. If it gets too hot your computer will (should) shut down automatically. You should get a laptop cooler to keep the temps down, because its not good to have your cpu and gpu running so hot for extended periods of time
