    Asus g73sw fans blowing harder after reformat

    I recently had to reformat my asus g73sw laptop (i7-2360QM and nvidia 460m) and I used the drivers that are posted within this forum in order to get it back up and running in its somewhat normal state.

    The problem I have been having is that while playing games or rendering video, the fans seem to be working much harder than they previously did , and even sometimes when they shouldn't have to be blowing at all (such as just internet surfing).

    As far as I know all of my drivers are up to date and I am running the Bios 211. The temperature of the cores are getting up to 90 C max which I know is not hot enough to hurt anything but I want to make sure that it will not lead to a greater problem.

    Thanks for any information!
