Solve : Laptop temp issues?

Answer» HELLO everyone,

I have a HP dv6000 laptop that I know runs at a really high temperature (idles about 60C, can hit 85 if busy)
This series of laptops is known to run pretty hot and even had some recalls with battery temp.
Wondering if anyone else's similar laptop does the same, and if not what the differences could be.
Have cleaned out all the DUST bunnies and it still runs at full fan and slightly lower temps for a week or so then right back at it.
Made a cooling PAD the gives it much more space underneath and installed a fan that blows more air into the laptop fan. Not sure if this helps (should in theory) and wondering if anyone knew of any programs that I could use to make the computer run at a constant rate while I test to see if the cooling pad actually helps.
Any info is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Quote

This will depend on how long and what programs were running adding to the thermal issue.
The external fan/cooling PADS will help dissipate heat. You could simply check this by a hardware temp. software monitor both on idle and running any programs.It does vary a lot. If cooler operation matters to you, TRADE in that laptop and get another. That is the only viable option for improving the performance and heat issue. There is not such thing as a add-on cooling system for a laptop.
Articles like the one below, IMHO, hare not much help.
