U430p Touch temperature too high

Good morning everyone,
I have the Lenovo U430p Touch (Grey 59427963):
i7-4510U
NVIDIA Geforce GT 730M 
8GB Ram
500GB + 8GB 5400 rpm
Since very young, I was always into gaming, being the clevo P370EM my previous "laptop". I've decided to go for a lighter smaller laptop and I chose the Lenovo U430.
I have this Lenovo laptop now, for the past 9 months. apart from the normal tasks (browsing, video chating, music videos, excel documents, image editing....) I play a few games as well (League of Legends, Path of Exile and Grid 2).
I haven't modified the laptop in any way. Everything is up to date - OS and drivers.
i like the games to run smooth so Im not even on high graphics, I reduced them to have more fps.
since the beggining the laptop allways worked fine, temperatures where never too high...
but for the past 1.... 2 months, I started noticing that it gets too hot in when playing, and even when im bworsing on youtube for example...
I was wondering that I should/could open the laptop to clean the dust (i've used the Dust Removal tool from lenovo Power management but it barely helps....) and also to renew the thermal paste.
However, I was not able to find much info on this.
The image below is from Notebookcheck, could you guys let me know wich one is the GPU and wich one is the CPU, and also:
does both the GPU and CPU use thermal paste? or is it only the GPU?
Would it be a good idea to renew the thermal paste? (I would take the laptop to any store capable of doing this)

Thank you

First, I would recommend that you download HWMonitor which is a free utility that will report your system's temperatures.  That way you will know if "hot" is really too hot.  The download comes in two versions. The first will install on your computer.  The second version is a Zip file that can be copied onto a flash drive and used as a portable application.  You can download HWMonitor here....

Secondly, I would recommend that you blow out the cooling vents on your computer if you have never done so.  Given the time in use, the environment in which you use you laptop, the heatsink and fan maybe covered in dust. Dust on the cooling fins will decrease the cooling efficiency and dust caked on the fan's blades with decrease performance.  Can of compressed air are available at any computer or electronics stores.  They maybe also found in the electronics section of big chain stores.  Just use short bursts of compressed air in the exhaust and intake vents.  Do this several times until you no longer notice dust being blown out.  Avoid long blasts of air as that may damage the fan.
Thirdly, if you decide take the computer in to have the thermal paste renewed I would recommend finding an Lenovo Authorized Service Center since the laptop is still under warranty.  The repair center will renew all the thermal paste under the CPU or GPU. You can find an authorize center by using the link below.  Select your country, enter in your city and check the back box for Warranty Service Provider.  Here is that link......

  • MSI GTX560 Ti Hawk SLI Temperature too high

    Hi,
    Two days ago I bought a second GTX560-Ti hawk (Twin Frozr III) to run in SLi with my other (the exact same card). I noticed that the VRAM temperature of one of the cards (I'm guessing the top one, but I'm not 100% sure) got really high. It got to something like 90 degrees celcius. Core temperature was ok for both cards, a little bit higher than when running a single card but I suppose that is to be expected.
    Also when I stopped doing anything when it got to that temperature I noticed that the VRAM temperature wasn't going down very fast.
    I've tried both cards separately and didn't observe those temperatures so I'm guessing the cards are ok. It's only in SLi modes that these have issues. I was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction as to fixing this problem, as right not I cannot play any games because I'm worried that the temperatures will become too high.
    It's worth mentioning I have a MSI P67A-GD55 (B3) motherboard.
    Thanks for any help you guys can give me.

    Actually I got a new case and put everything in and did as you said (switched the cards) and got no screen at all.
    If I switch the cards to the original set up it works like I described before. I'm guessing the second card is faulty and I will RMA it.

  • Is 95C CPU temperature too high?

    I have Intel Core 2 Duo iMac. When I use QuickTime or any other video converting software to convert video for my iPhone CPU temperature hits 95C mark. Is it too high? Should I do something about it. If yes what should I do? It is the only situation when CPU temp is so high usually it is not higher then 70C when loaded.

    Hi,
    thats normal that the CPU of an mobile system gets hotter, I mean your much more near the CPU then by an desktop. Thats normal that you could think the CPU gets too hot.
    I have an Satellite X200 (Gamer machine) and the thing gets really hot, but thats normal since a powerful CPU is in there.
    If I were you I wouldnt make any doubt about it and if youre unsure just ask some of your friends which owns a notebook. Usually they would say "yes, mine gets hot, too.."
    The 100 degree means that the CPU can become such hot till it reaches 100 degree and then the machine shuts down to prevent to some damage on the CPU.
    So in this case the 70 degree are okay. You (can by the way) prevent overheating when you clean your machine regurarely simply by blasting some compressed air gently through the ventilation holes of the CPU cooling system. If not then the cooling modules will be clogged from dust and start to overheat...

  • Imac temperatures ¿too high?

    Hi,
    I've owned my Imac G5 for about 6 months now, and the other day I had my hand placed on the top of the screen and I noticed it was quite hot for the normal. I live in Spain and its about 36º in the afternoon (96F), maybe its just the Imac facing the summer, I don't now. Anyway, I'll leave the stats of the temperatures from a widget I've got so you can know a little bit more, thanks
    [img=http://img61.imageshack.us/img61/3830/tempsan4.png]

    The information Chris CA gave you was absolutely accurate - if your computer gets too hot, the power supply unit will automatically shut it down when it exceeds the recommended temperature, so until that happens, you don't need to worry about it. And you are posting in the wrong place, this is for PPC iMacs, which have not been produced for several years. You have an intel and he gave you the correct forum to post in.
    His information was not only correct, but useful as well, if you trouble to read and understand it instead of being snarky!

  • CPU temperature too high

    i have P4 2.8Ghz 0.09 Micron on an 875 NEO - FIS2R Board , and my CPU is runing on 61 on low up to 82-85 on "burn" when it shut's down the temp in the case is 32 on low - 35 on "BURN" , the case is CodeGen 9011 with 3 fans + additional 2 fans / 1*8cm + 1*12cm/ + fan under the HDD , the cpu is BOX version , it is in the original intel package with the heatsink and fan ... what can caouse such high temp. Please help

    Hi Maxi
    Ok first of all there is no northbridge temp sensor. So ignore that reading it is just a floating voltage that is taken as a temperature. Your NB will be fine as many and I mean many ppl have posted saying there NB temp is in that region and none have died.  
    Secondly I agree with Ruckus buy a new heatsink I suggest the Zalman CNPS7000-A Al/CU (Aluminium and copper version as lower weight.)  
    But if your CPU is a Prescott which I think it might be then go with the all copper version.
    But before you upgrade your heatsink maybe just reseat your current intel cooler because i might be on wrong. Secondly maybe upgrade the bios to a newer version to rule out a bios issue with the temp.  
    Those are my suggestions. Wait for other ppls suggestions before you take action.
    Hope this helps

  • Are my temperatures too high? GTX580 TFII

    I just got a MSI 580 Twin Frozr II OC and it works fine. It's just that I feel like it's getting a bit too hot compared to what I've read in reviews and posts online.
    if my computer is idle, the temperatures are around 40deg C at 40% fan speed. If I play Battlefield 3, it gets to around 87-89Deg C at around 70% fan speed (I've never seen it go above 89deg).
    Are these dangerous temperatures? I'm not getting artifacts or anything, I'm just worried it's bad for the card over time..
    I have one 120mm fan at the rear and one 120mm on the side sucking air out, and one in the front blowing air in. They are all silent type fans with relativly low RPM.

    are you using dual screen?
    the card stay in 3d mode when you are using 2 screen, you can force 2d mode with nvidia Inspector (sorry I only have french link : http://www.overclocking-pc.fr/forums/showthread.php?t=23670)
    my temp were at 41°C IDLE before I know that, now 28°C ....

  • IMac 27" i5 - GPU Temperature too high ?-

    Hi, I just had back my imac 27 from apple store (they changed logic board).
    Everything is fine but gpu temps are very high even without running cpu/gpu consuming apps.
    Both GPU diode and heatsink are 70° C, ambient 23° C, CPU 48° C and HD 52° C.
    First of the repair I haven't noticed values so high.
    It seems to me that some airflow path could have been blocked somehow during repair.
    Any experience about these temps?
    Tips? Apple official replies?
    Thank you in advance,
    A.

    I am getting a 1 KHz whine through Behringer Truth monitors using M-Audio USB Fast Track Ultra audio/midi interface with an iMac i5 27-inch with LED monitor. The whine occurs continuously from the moment I open Logic Studio or iTunes, when the output is routed through the Fast Track Ultra. The whine does not occur when I use the imac output to imac's speakers. I also get an electronic scraping noise when I use the blue tooth connected magic mouse. I have installed ferrites on the monitor speaker wires with no reduction in the whining noise or electronic scraping noise. I have also ordered the USB with ferrite collar to see if the connection between audio/midi interface and the imac is the source of the noise. I am considering a Hum-X, as well, but I am getting into serious money taking stabs at a problem for which there ought to be plenty of competent technical support. The fact that this whine is at 1 KHz and not lower suggests that I am not suffering a typical ground loop. I am a former Pro Tools user who never had a hum or whine from my Digi and G4, which I am seriously considering recomissioning so I can make music again. I am spending way too much time and money making educated guesses and trying to diagnose a problem that all but kills the utility and purpose of this new system. I too am calling on all great engineers to step up with a diagnosis and solution.

  • Qosmio G35 - Temperature too high

    I had already 2 times repair this laptop, and don't want repair it again.
    Problem is Temperatire on VideoCard. If do nothing(display closed) temperature is GMCH1 73С(164F), GMCH2 64C(147F).
    I bought FLOSTON Airgear.Now if do nothing(display closed) GMCH1 63C(145F) GMCH2 55C(131F).
    If i start to do something - temperature increasing up to 77C(170F). If load some 3D it increasing more and more.
    I want replace cooler in laptop myself. I need some instructions and schemes how to do this. And some advises.

    Hi,
    I have this laptop still under warranty, but my problem is that it gets to an extreme temperature, i don`t think it`s normal for the cpu temperature to rich 84C using just internet explorer and yahoo messenger.
    Until now i thought that noise from the cooling fan was annoying but if i get to the point where my board get`s fried, i`m ready to deal with this noise only to keep the laptop cool. My subject: is there a software which i can use to keep my cooling fan at maximum speed, despice the noise.
    I am ok now, i still have warranty, but what happens after ??? ...

  • My macbook pro cpu temperature is too high??please tell me correct fact and information

    i mistake deleting my activity.......re question...
    I'm using macbook pro retina 13inch 2013 late version.
    my macbook has NO external graphic card, just iris graphic.
    when i was playing diablo3 or watching movie by using bypass ip address, my cpu temperature was maintained 90~100 celcius degrees.
    And at the same time, my cooling fan was maintained 5800~6000 rpm.
    There are two questions.
    One, is my macbook temperature too high or normal level ?
    Two, i know that 6200rpm is maximum speed of cooling fan. Why  did fan run 5800~6000rpm, not maximum?

    When processor intensive activities are taking place, temperature may reach the maximum level.

    the temperature stay costant on about 78-80°C
    and have istant spike when i play on a game.....
    i saw it with speedfan and with MSI Afterburner.

  • Camileo X-Sports - Temperature is too high

    Hi everyone,
    I just received a brand knew Camelio X-Sports cam and I have a serious problem : I installed le camera into the case, I started filming in 1080p60 and whihin minutes the cam just went off.
    I started filming again and 2 minutes later, the lcd displayed "Temperature too high", then the cam shutted down.
    I removed the cam from the case, then removed the battery, it was indeed pretty hot.
    I updated the firmware to 2248 but it didn't change anything.
    I think the battery may be faulty but I wanted to ask the forum before returning it to the store.
    I didn't find any relative thread on the world wire web :)
    Informations :
    - Camelio X-Sports PA5150E-1C0K
    - Firmware : v2.2.4.8 (I updated manually)
    - 64GB Lexar 300x SDXC
    - Powersave 1min
    - LCD Brightness 2 / 3
    - LCD Off 5s
    My apologies for the poor language,
    Best regards,
    Mathieu

    I read in the other thread that you purchased the new battery for this cam.
    Did you notice the same higher temperature using new battery?
    Feedback would be appreciated.

  • HP g42-478tx temperature goes high

    hello
    while playing games like world of padman,gta-san andreas on my hp g42-478tx , temperature hovers around 80-90 degrees, normal activity  temperatures stay around 50-60 degrees.
    also in linux (ubuntu) normal desktop  usage the temperature of the cpu is around 60 degree
    is the temperature too high??should i not game in these circumstances?? any possible suggestions please??what is the safe temperature range for this laptop??
    thanks in advance
    below are the images from cpu temp monitor 

    I just took another look at the Intel website.
    Tj (maximum temperature) for the Core i3-370M is 90C for rPGA and 105C for BGA type processor. You will need to run CPU-z to see which processor package your notebook has. My loaner dv7-4180ea notebook has the rPGA package.
    Are you using CoreTemp to determine the temperature?

  • IPad Charger temperature goes too high

    I bought iPad Mini with Retina display recently. I attached a charger properly. After some time when i touched the charger I found its temperature is too high. So I removed and checked USB side of the cable, its temperature was so high that I could not hold it for more than 4-5 seconds. Is there any problem with my charger or this happens with every charger? What should I do?

    Possible sign of battery failure:
    1. Very hot when charging
    2. Not holding charge
    3. Takes a long time to charge
    How old is your battery?
