So for about a week now my bro has been moaning about his laptop getting really hot ( 90c at the CPU :/ )

 

So i came up with this gheeto cooling mod , i used some old fans i had lying about and some old heavy duty speaker wire and an old usb cable and soldered and taped them all together , the USB is plugged into a wall socket with an adapter and i removed any panels i could off the bottom of the lap top to let air cerculate and now the CPU only gets to 41c :D

Why is your CPU at stock speed btw?

Potatoes are good for your nostrils.
