    Hi,

    My G73 is idling around 80. I've read a lot about ICD7 and MX-2 but the local Asus Support center only has SIIG Ultra Chill.

    Please suggest..

    1) Blow out your vents first
    2) where do you live?

    Mine was idling around 80 lastnight until I blew out the dust. Now it Idles around 50 so it really helps. Just take off the bottom panel and blow into the vents. Make sure to stick a paperclip into the vents to keep the fans still.
