    Depending on how old it is, dust may have accumulated in the vents which can reduce airflow and increase heat. If that is the case, I suggest you buy a can of compressed air, open your laptop, and blow out all the dust.

    When did you play COD 4 or 5? Few months ago?
    As NAS Ghost said, dust may have accumulated in the vent, especially if you never clean the vent.

    I was seeing ridiculous temps of 107c while playing Borderlands, popping the bottom off and blowing out the dust bunnies has me down at a much more manageable 85c.
