yes, it was the first solution, and I did it, but without much difference
I could also change the thermal grease, but I'm reluctant to unmount the thermal pipes :-(

Save this as your last resort -- but -- I have had good success replacing the thermal grease on old boxes showing heating issues (I prefer Arctic Silver 5)
I have just ordered some new one (the old one I have is too old and I don't remember how much I have available - I don't want to be stuck in the middle of the operation :-). but it's just in case. I never had to do so on laptops before (I did on desktop mobo). However, I notice this one is specially hot, being at 54°C when iddle when I tracked yesterday a faulty desktop mobo that was only 40°C hot :-( - but refreshing a laptop is much more difficult, and this one have the exhaust just under the screen hinge, so what I can't easily add an extractor :-( thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
