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..=.=''




Please use the quote button next time. Postings merged.

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

d u mean u actually did that? with your ULV pentium-m (it's 0.988V so i gues it's either a ULV or u undervolted it)?

yeah.. around 90...
small, portable, performance and unique
that's wut make this fella, for me,, expesive huhuhh

i think u need a notebook cooler, u can find at the BULK section, the guy who selling notebook cooler is ngbh or either vCool. try to search at there.

try look at this:

I undervolted it using NHC. And yeah, I changed the paste. I'm using Arctic Ceramic. The main problem isn't really the heat transfer. The heatsink in most notebooks are so bloody puny they only provide enough heat dissipation to keep it within "acceptable" limits.

Btw, I personally feel that anything about 60C is unhealthy for a notebook. My notebook never goes above 60C.

Gaming + No AC = 60C
Gaming + AC = 53C
Normal Use + No AC = 45C
Normal Use + AC = 40C

Those are my temps...roughly.

I'm using a notebook cooler. I'll find some time to take a picture of it later.

wat program do u use to detect ur lappie's temperature?

You may use speedfan.

put in freezer or put on ice. Good to ur battery life also

what about those cooler pad made from alluminium? but still laptop is like that one la....heat problem......for normal use is ok....game take up more power

Have you tried raisng the lappie?.....,I did it for my home rig....,i cut 2 squash balls into 4 halfs and put it under the laptop....,hell...,it even absorbed vibration......

=.=''' , you must be kidding. Why don't you try to put your laptop into the bathtub?
Crap crap crap.

60C quite normal in gaming.. dont expect ur laptop can in temperature below 40C like normal desktop PC.
can try use artic silver 5 termal grease to ur laptop CPU surface. it might help reduce a bit

yaya.. i also own a v3010. just lift it up create some air flow space....

i currently using a 1.5 inch square aluminium tube as spacers.....

I think there's no need to worry about overheating because all laptops are tested before they're sold.

just play the game with your laptop at the antartic...ngeh ngeh ngeh...

as for cooler solution check this out
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/242971

Give us the reason for that.

if hav budget..try to look at zalman cooler..saw it at all-it with the price of 100++..kinda very good lappy cooler i think..

Grab a CM laptop cooler ... i think may help

CM INFINITE..website said tat can low down abt 10degree..going to try out soon.lolz.

or artic... lallalalalal

















tis poster dont have sense of humor.. dont so serious la bro

LoL bro,don't care about the temperature if it's still under warranty man,even if it overheats u can replace a new one as it is still under warranty,especially for the first year of warranty,why u wanna waste money on notebook coolers when it is still under warranty?pray and hope it gets overheat and u can get a new lappie..

i didnt know overheating counts under warranty....

as a cheaper alternative, u can use a table fan and direct it to your laptop while playing game bro.. tested on my NEC laptop, (celeron oni..) witout fan it can go up to 46*C, wit the fan on, can go down to 41*C, sumtimes 39*C also bro.. notebook coolers all usually nt very effective bro..

and lifting up ur laptop slightly can help too.. just my 2cents..

a table fan may not be a solution for everyone ..... it would blows away all ur papers around if there's not an object placed above it...

basically there's no proper solution as most notebook cooler just not good enough ....

if u could do some modding probably can get ur own laptop cooler ....

get a price of acrylic and drill dual 12cm fan holes and get some rubber feet from hardware shop as spacer to raise the acrylic piece higher than the two 12cm fans ..

then get urself a 12v adapter like those used for 3:5 inch external HDD case... modify the adapter to 4 pins molex and there u go .

for finishing some decoration could be done as well ...

i think cool pad for laptops quite satisfactory but not that efficient.
you can also try laptop external fan.

in my experience, i used my laptop as cpu unit and use an external monitor:
it works as i did not use the laptop's monitor. the system eventually become cooler...
belive me, try it!

as for now,i think having a good quality cooler like zalman and CM is the best way to cool down ur pc..oso clean it up if its dusty..

u can try to underclock ur laptop...it longer ur battery life and cool down ur laptop

Where the heck is that DIY notebook cooler thread?

Zalman laptop cooler not bad lar.... tried it... lower down quite a lot....

suggest u play in an air-con room wif damn cold temperature... laptop in 60C is normal? im not clear about laptop's stuff

i play battlefield 2 can reach 70'C.... lol.. can fry egg de...

i use my laptop wif better performance setting wil keep around 60C , n play game might go to 70C....i think the main causes of the temp is the graphic card le.but nowaday C2D is alot more heat. most effective way is use it under air condition places

1. Undervolt (very easy, safe and also rewarding)
2. Use cooler (DIY urself oso can, place the fans under ur laptop's hot spot)
3. Change your CPU and GPU thermal paste (risky, needs some skill)

if not time u change thermal liquid at processors, my sister laptop also hot. I use buy normal cooling pad, but temperature going down until 51, but need the what place you put ur laptop.

Hi, i have the same laptop as you. All i did is, strip the laptop naked, cleaned it's fans.

then, i diy my own notebook cooler with faster fans.. That's it.. mine will be around 30-45c

Actually laptop processor is more tahan panas then desktop processor, so dun worries guys~

Guys, anyone know the free software to detect temperature of cpu?

just google it der, u will find some free software 4 temp monitor 4 ur gcard..
try this http://gallery.live.com/liveItemDetail.asp...6cc4c&bt=1&pl=1

thanks bro

core temp ??

I using Core Temp + All CPU Meter, its nice and easy! For GPU i use GPU OBserver
