Toshiba X300-122 absurd overheating problem.

Hi guys.
I'm really getting crazy with a problem about this notebook, it's for european market. It comes with the intel T9400 and NVidia 9800M GTX.
I had purchased my first laptop and soon I discovered the GPU temperature quickly increases up to 104 C° mostly during playing games and in less than 5 minutes. It leads to a crash.. black screen and sound looping.
I had my warranty onsite extension and I used it.. They replaced the graphic card the first time, and on a second intervention even the fans and the whole motherboard. (it comes with 2 fans by factory).
Same shxx.. still the problem. So, sick and tired about this, I complained, and they changed my notebook with a brand new one.
It looked a bit better but I was wrong. Still the same freaking overheating problem. The funny crazy absurd thing, is that if you lay the notebook on the left side, the temperature gets steady, and goes not over 68-70 C° even runnig games full detail, full native resolution.
On the contrary, lifting the notebook from the table with some books for getting the air downside, or laying it on the right side, the temperature grows up quickly.
Now I'm really fed up and I sent an official complain to toshiba to be refunded.
Anyway. Does anyone have idea why the heck, laying it on the left side the temperature is ok and steady even running intense graphic applications? Do you have any suggestion?
I'm really desperate, cause I wasted a lot of time, I wasted more than 2000 euros and besides i even need the nootebook for working, mostly.

I will apprechate your answers, thanks.

 

well that is just a bad part on nvidia and toshiba...the cooling could be better..
in order to solve this, im sure thermal paste would alleviate the issue, otherwise getting a notebook cooler such as the nzxt cryo. my temps used to hit around 100c on rainbow 6 vegas 2, but when playing fsx, it didnt pass 70c..so it has a lot to do with what ur doing. but mostly its just bad cooling, and bad heat dissipation which could be solved by applying a bit of arctic silver 5 and/or getting an nzxt cryo lx notebook cooler.

 

Yes, it's a very bad part!
Il looks like to be a production defect on some models but officially has not been even considered, even if many laptops not only for european market suffer about this. I'm not the only one, as you can read wherever. They even "kindly" removed my account from the european official toshiba e-forum cause maybe for them the easiest way to solve a problem is to bury it.
Anyway, when they replaced the GPU they put thermal paste too. I dont know if they put arctic silver 5. Even if I'm skilled in disassembling notebook and desktops so far I won't do it, cause I don't want to invalidate the warranty.
Besides it's a problem that "toshiba" has to solve, not me.
About the cooling pad, I even tried to put an additional fan on the bottom.
The result was just to alleviate the problem. Infact the temperature increased the same as hell, but in a longer time.
The furmark test full resolution, stands 120 secs before I can fry the eggs on it. So maybe the problem could be solved if I put this shxt over an apache rotor blades.
By the way, the fans work both, even if I have the impression the first fan, the one hooked on the processor heatsink runs faster than the additional fan, the one that should cool the big GPU heatsink shaped as a "J".
The fan hooked on the processor heatsink, blows the warm air over the first half of the gpu big heatsink. This air is already warmed up, so I don't know how it can cool both when cpu and gpu processes are both involved.
Fortunately the temperature of the processor is pretty cool. Not more than 63 C° when stressed.
The second fan, blows the air on the second half of the gpu heatsink that has the blades more closer, and it's distant about 3 cm from it, but it's wrapped with some black thin carton that works as flow conveyor.
This fan should have more cooling power cause it's the one that blows fresh air on the gpu heatsink, but it's not like that.
I don't know if eliminating someway that distance and putting the fan pretty close to the gpu heatsink will help to furtherly reduce the temperature.
Another thing I really dislike it's this stupid bios embedded fan control that toshiba uses. It's impossible to run a fan test with any software.
Besides, it's pretty much O.S compliant. I didn't try yet, but I bet that if you install linux on the X300, the fans dont work properly, risking to fry everything like in the older models.
