    My G50VT-X5 is running very loudly. Suggestions?

    I've had this thing for about a year, and it's been great! Only problem is it's starting to get very loud, even when I'm not doing anything with it. This has only been in the last few months. The GPU is at 70C, and the CPU is at about 50C.

    Any idea what's going on?

    Looks a little hot under the hood. Clean out the radiator/vents.
