ASUS K61IC high temps under idle and load
Hello guys, i swear its been more than a year since i last visited xP
Anyway straight to the point, I have my friends old laptop an ASUS K61IC
-intel core 2 duo t6600 2.1Ghz 4gb ddr2 ram and a gt220m
Notebooks & Ultrabooks - K61IC
and basically the laptop has a dedicated cpu and a dedicated gpu fan. so they have separate cooling out two ports of the back of the laptop which is pretty swell :P
Now the problem is, the cpu can hit 60c when idle and the GPU 54 which i guess is fine for that., nothing is active in the taskbar except temperature monitoring. nothing running in the background.
under load (gaming) the cpu hits up to 80c and the gpu a bit less . to me i think that is a bit high, even for a nvidia gpu. I have a laptop with a faster amd athlon x2 and a 6470m but they remain cooler BUT share a heatsink and fan
i have cleaned out dust and re applied TIM but nothing has changed also both fans spin up, except the gpu fan doesnt spin fast.
your thoughts?
