karimatwa 10 Posted November 12, 2014 Hello, I would like to know if anyone has any ideas to reduce y510p temps other than repasting and cut the chasis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

octiceps 256 Posted November 14, 2014 You can try IdeaFan and a cooling pad or elevating the bottom. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lcj759 10 Posted November 15, 2014 hmm im not that good with those but what i am running on my y510p is a duo 120mm cooling pad. seems to work for me well. doesnt get hot at all when i have the pad running high. but if i have it on medium it still gets a bit hot. the cooling pad i got is like 60$ so that might be a cheaper easier way to lower temp Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thepharcyde 14 Posted November 15, 2014 I've removed the metal mesh from my Y500. This with the combination of IdeaFan that's an awesome piece of software and a cooling pad I see a good reduction on temp for both the CPU and GPU's. Playing games that utilise c.95+% gpu power I was hitting the GPU threshold on the non sli card and was temp downclocked to 790 from 1150mhz automactically. It now never drops from 1150.
