My Laptop burning glaciers..!!

Hello, The Tom's Hardware community. I am very annoyed with my laptop overheating.
Today, I was doing some document work and I noticed the computer was very hot. I installed that program called Piriform Speccy and it said that both the CPU and motherboard were at 80 C while the HDD was at like 46 C, I was like WTF, Such high temperature at some mere document work.
Here is my rig :-
Model - Acer Aspire V5
Processor:- Intel Core i3 2367M @ 1.40 GHz
Ram - 4.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)
GPU - Simple Intel HD 3000
Motherboard :- Acer Aspire V5-571 (CPU Socket - U3E1)
HDD :- 465GB Western Digital WDC WD5000LPVT-22G33T0 (SATA)

Hope I get a solution, Anyways Thanks to the community

Interior dust.

When was the last time you blew out the exhaust vents with compressed air?

Its like only 1 month or so, the fans all good, bro.

Did you actually remove the base cover and fan to clean it properly? Sometimes the dust forms a material that looks like it could be used for clothing.

On what surface is this laptop being used?

Maybe the CPU needs a re-pasting.

I have elevated the laptop and made a laptop stand.... @USAFret

If it is on a hard surface with airspace underneath....dust would be my first thought.

How would a cooling pad will work in this case, because I will really not buy any laptop in the future, instead i will go for desktops >_<
