    Hello
    I got my Y400 today, and I started to play some minecraft, and the CPU is reaching 70C. Is this normal? Should I buy a cooling pad?
    Thanks,
    orimac11 :)

    You can get a cooling pad (it helps) but don't expect miracles.

    Now I changed a few settings and I'm getting to 62C when I play FIFA, that's fine, right?
    thanks
