Yeah, so as the title says, they hover at around 70, and the second one at 64, as im writing this. Fans blasting pretty hard. I have the laptop 2 years now, keep it clean, no dust on the fans and heat pipes. Am i supposed to add some paste to the heatsink, or should i not even touch that ? Also, if this is normal, anything i can do to cool it ?

 

Also, would those modified Vbioses help in anywyay ? performance wise. Or do they just unlock the overclock ?

Repasted CPU, and both GPUs with ARCTIC SILVER 5, changed the GPU thermal pads to the best i could find, some 7 Watt ones. Cleaned all the dust too. BIG change... they now hover at around 30-50 idle, and only max out at 70 and rarely 80 at full load. Highly recommend doing this.
