Currently using Compact Presario V3000 ,AMD Turon 64 bit X 2, temperature shoots up to 60 degree++ when playing 3D game although I use cooling pad.Anyone has any idea to cool down the laptop?

which cooling pad are you using?

what game are you playing?
just wanna know the capabilities of this notebook.

This might help and u can get it At All IT Hypermall....

Evercool

be adventurous - strip off your laptop and apply AS5 for pure heat transfer between cpu (no integrated heat sink - just direct CPU die) and heat sink

since laptop cooling feature is not really good, aint 60C ++ still consider good? hmm

play in the fridge

Play in aircond room will do but only the electricity bill is the issue....

60 degree is a very good temperature for mobile computers. Intel mobile processors can reach 70-80 degree celcius with ease.

my cooling pad with 2 3200Rpm which made in China. I played F.E.A.R and my GPU temperature reaches 72 degree.

Dont dare to do it la...I just bought it last week...=.=''''

Hmm...I think AMD processor generate more heat than Intel.

please dont talk crap to me ...I really need constructive advices here..=.=''

hmm.. laptop is like that la.. what u can expect .. even if u used a notepal.. IMO.. the temp drop oso wun b much.. hehehe

Wrong...

New AMD processors are made to run cooler than Intel processors...

All new AMD processor are much much cooler than all new line of Intel Processors...

So basically, you're notebook runs cooler actually...

Okay, I've read some documentation on Turion. It can take up to 95 degrees before throttling or shutting down. Consider your laptop cool.

The hype about C2D running cooler than the X2s is a myth. The low power consumption figures given for C2D is a bit like the 5000 Watts PMPO thingy for mini compos. The true hifi amps only pump 50 Watts RMS oso will blow away the 5000 Watt PMPO. Intel uses a different way to derive the lower figures. That's all. I have both n I can tell u the C2D is a heat monster too. The fellas upgrading from Prescotts to C2D will think it's cool. Those who haf both AMD n C2D will tell u the heat is the same.

My mistake then...

Will edit that post...

If you were using, you could use a software called "Notebook Hardware Control" to undervolt. Since you're not, the only option is notebook cooler. The Evercool recommended is a good one.

Been there. Done that. Don't waste time.

ya ya.. intel a bit hotter...

how much is this cooelr selling at allit?

I saw it at IT hypermarket and the price is around RM90++

i owned 3000z series before, and the temp u r running is just fine

i used it to fold 2 clients (100% loading) 24 hours for one month before sold it, it can reach 69c in very hot afternoon, while air con room will be around 65c full load

the gc temp is even worse, start up it's already 62c, normal usage like browsing n typing is ~70c, gaming 80++c, so i think it's very high chance not accurate becoz of the bios issue or watever reason, or the gc can really suffers more than 100c

i tried customise cooler for it but no point, the cpu heatsink area is just too small, the hole for air inflow is only 1/4 of the fan, wherever where i customise my fan, the CPU was only 2-3 celcius cooler, unlike other laptops, the hv big heatsink w 1 complete fan hole, notebook cooler will helps a lot, same to the gc, doesnt improve much neither

my suggestion, just enjoy the heat unless u play it in aircon room, or the result is more or less the same, the proc can suffer up to 95c
