    What is likely ocuring is dust clogging your fan(s). I recommend you clean them out, and cooling central should help with that.

    Keep in mind that the temps are effected by your ambient temperature. The hotter the air in your house is, the hotter the laptop's temps will be.

    Are those readings in the same place (like same room) or are them from different places where you web browse? That may be the reason (like closed and more open spaces).
