So recently, my laptop which is ASUS R510JX is running HOT like hell and having thermal throttling issues just while surfing web. When I checked the thermal readings, it was something like this;
Core #0: 98 °C (208 °F)
Core #1: 94 °C (201 °F)
Core #2: 95 °C (203 °F)
Core #3: 96 °C (204 °F)
(used CPUID HWMonitor v1.31.0)
I'm not able to watch x264, x265 videos properly.
On visiting ASUS's service centre, they're telling me to replace the whole motherboard! *WTH*.
The one problem I'm noticing is the fan's running a lot slower even during heavy loads. I tried searching in BIOS to manually change the fan speeds. But there's no such option there unfortunately! (BIOS version: X550JX 206 Aptio service utility). I even tried third party softwares like SpeedFan, but no luck there too.
Help!
