    The fan has been blowing very hot air recently. I've also noticed some websites with a lot of graphics, gifs, etc, will freeze up and not allow you to scroll for a short while.

    I installed Core Temp and the lowest temp reading is 64C, the highest 84C. This seems high to me, but I am used to towers more so than laptops.

    I opened it up and cleaned out the dust off the fan. After a reboot its feeling cooler exhaust from the fan though the temp readout is the same.

    Any suggestions on 1) is this normal? 2) how to help keep temps down if not normal.

    Thanks.
