    Hello all
    I am using dv6570er for about year already, the problem is in core?acpi?gpu temperature; while typing this post speedfan shows temp1(acpi?)71*C; core0&core1 71*C; GPU 61*C.
    About an hour ago i disassembled him, cleaned motherboard, fan etc... then assembled, i was really happy when see speedfan showing 51*C but this doesn't last too long when i switched power plan (was "power economy") in mobility center to "High performance" temp scaled to 60*C same when changed to "Balanced" (before disassembly notebook i was getting 90*C in three seconds after swithching to Balanced/High perfomance plan and 65*C in power economy). When i bought this laptop he was showing only 35*C, what can be the reason of so high temperature?

    OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (preinstalled with HP tools etc updated to sp2)

    71C a bit high but still within the range.
    Try to change the thermal paste, the stock one is known have a bad quality.
    Your GPU temp is good.

    Is there any software that will help diagnose the problem? temperature changes very fast in high performance plan it si over 80*C with 10-20% cpu usage

    First of all, High Performance is never supposed to be used on laptops. There is no software to diagnose the problem, you have answered yourself already. Sudden spikes in temps mean that the thermal paste is of low quality or the heatsink isn't properly seated.
