    Sup yall
    recently my i6000 has had alot of fan noise and heat. I keep a fan running to cool it down( a regular home fan) and it helps but once i turn it off, it goes hot again and the high fans start to kick in
    any suggestions?

    Yeah, clean your laptop out, dust has accumulated in the heatsink.
