Hello.
So hm, after frequent freezes all the time, i decided to download SpeedFan to check my laptop's heat, since i got rid of all possible viruses / formatted, etc.
Here's what it says...
Also, if you wanna convert Farenheit to Celsius, or the opposite :

There. I'm really worried about it.

Considering i can't get any hardware to cool it down for now, till summer or so, can anyone suggest me anything / any software to cool it down?
Or just simple tips.

Don't forget i'm on a laptop.
I already got a grid to let the get through.

Thanks in advance.

P.S : Please, don't quote the whole post, for thread's sake.

try stop using it for along time LOL
or either stop using it for 30 minutes everytime it overheats

when using it at home you can buy a under cooler its like $35 and you open up your laptop from the bottom and you place the mat with 4 fans under it, it will keep your computer cool. or you can just water cool your laptop there are a couple guilds on how to do it but you need to have tools.

80C is somewhat high for the CPU, 100C may or may not be too high. Since it's both components, though, I recommend you always use the laptop on a flat surface and reverse any overclocking you may have done. The laptop cooler is a great investment for the little money you'd have to put towards it.
What you can do is turn off the power and take out the battery. Take components out and clean fans and heatsinks with something, there may be lots of dust blocking airflow. I did that to an old laptop and temps dropped 10-12C.
You can also reapply thermal paste on the CPU. Chances are it may have crusted up and now serves no purpose. I've actually heard toothpaste works if you can't get thermal compound, but you'd have to do some research into that.

>70C over long periods of time can harm the CPU, yes. GPU temps are a little bit different, generally they can take higher temperatures, but you can't really put a number on harmful temperatures, since many makes are so different.

Your side fan may be disrupted. Try dusting it with one of those can things with compressed air. Even if it makes noise it may be broken.

Turn down the power settings, you might never know if it helps.

Okay but my dad bought me a grid to get a better airflow.
Should i remove it and put it flat on the desk?

Not sure what a grid is for a laptop, but if it increases airflow, it's better.
