This has helped my laptop temperatures no matter what's going on.
I was around 140-154 Fahrenheit just idle with 0% CPU usage !
My temp went from 154 Fahrenheit down to 104 Fahrenheit !
If I open a lot of intensive programs it gets upto 115F now 
No more annoying loud fan, LOL. |
Hmm, that may work on your laptop, but it made no difference on my desktop.
A little while ago I was trying to fool around with setting the base CPU speed lower then "overclocking" it to its native speed when it was loaded (eg 2.6GHz idle, 3.1GHz loaded), in order to drop the idle temp a little... I didn't manage to get it working though.
