    I own a M50Vn and if you fan is the same as mine, it doesn't look easily removable, been simply blowing air in it so far.

    Have a look here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=260993

    If the fan is not easily removable (i.e., removable without taking off the CPU, GPU heatsinks which would void warranty) then the best way to do it is to insert Q-tips through the fan blades, in order to clean the fan blades and as far as possible the radiator fins. Gently though.
