2.My idle temperature of Cpu is between 42-49 C while in background songs and torrent downloading

3.When at late night since there is no noise of people in house mean when there is pin drop silence when i put my ear too close or very close to laptop i can hear Fan noise and sometimes hdd tick sound( hard disk working sound)

When you're using it are you leaving enough room underneath it for air to actually flow through? If you're blocking the vents that'll explain the high temperatures. the fan noise could be that they need cleaning out and could also have something to do with the slightly high temps.

Ok my room temp is 36 C does it have to do anything with room temperature?

Room temp is 36C?? Are you living in a sauna?? That's very hot and definitely contributes (I'm guessing it's summer where you are and you have no AC because a room at 36C is very uncomfortable). A CPU at 45C is not hot at all, Intel CPUs can safely go up to 90C (although you probably want to try and keep it below 70-80C). Yes, it is normal for a computer that is running hard and for a long time to heat up.

Having issues with a Corsair AIO? Possible fix here:

Spoiler

Are you getting weird fan behavior, speed fluctuations, and/or other issues with Link?

Are you running AIDA64, HWinfo, CAM, or HWmonitor? (ASUS suite & other monitoring software often have the same issue.)

Corsair Link has problems with some monitoring software so you may have to change some settings to get them to work smoothly.

-For AIDA64: First make sure you have the newest update installed, then, go to Preferences>Stability and make sure the "Corsair Link sensor support" box is checked and make sure the "Asetek LC sensor support" box is UNchecked.

-For HWinfo: manually disable all monitoring of the AIO sensors/components.

-For others: Disable any monitoring of Corsair AIO sensors.

That should fix the fan issue for some Corsair AIOs (H80i GT/v2, H110i GTX/H115i, H100i GTX and others made by Asetek). The problem is bad coding in Link that fights for AIO control with other programs. You can test if this worked by setting the fan speed in Link to 100%, if it doesn't fluctuate you are set and can change the curve to whatever. If that doesn't work or you're still having other issues then you probably still have a monitoring software interfering with the AIO/Link communications, find what it is and disable it.

The maximum temperature for an Intel CPU is 105 degrees Celsius. So there's enough headroom for it. 

The CPU in my Laptop is a i7 5700HQ. Under GPU and CPU Workload it gets hot. Like 100 degrees. But that won't prevent it from boosting to 3.5GHz.

 

 

Main PC: R7 3700X / Gigabyte X570 I Aorus Pro Wifi / Radeon RX 5700 XT / 32GB DDR4-3200 / 250GB & 2TB Crucial MX500 (in HP Prodesk 400 Case)

Laptop: R5 2500U / Radeon Vega 8 / 8GB DDR4-2400 / 500GB SK Hynix BC501 (HP Envy x360 13)

My little Server: i7-7700 / Asrock H110M-ITX / 24GB DDR4-2400 / Samsung 860 Pro 250GB & Seagate Firecuda 2TB / VMware ESXi 6.7

Well, you are using Chrome... Close chrome, close your torrent, wait for the system to cool off, and now read the temperature.

I suggest using another web browser like: Firefox, Opera or Edge. Chrome is not a good web browser at all for mobile systems. It is fine on a desktop, as the heavy load it puts on the CPU is handled with the large air flow and heatsink solution, and is not power limited.

I guess your main problem is your room temperature, 36 degrees celcius is ALOT. 

When that's said, you shouldn't be surprised of temps reaching 40+ idle for your CPU especially in a laptop. 

Also make sure you're not blocking any vents/fans when you're using your laptop and sure 10 hours of straight use usually results in a bit of heat and therefore fan-noise.
