I have a two year old Asus Vivo with 17" screen and a decent i7 CPU in it. Just lately I noticed the internal cooling fans are running really quite fast an the machine gets quite overly warm to the touch, plus the machine is showing signs of slowing down despite me playing around to delete certain programs from the laptop. However I have checked the temps of the hardware and all are within acceptable limits.
So I got to thinking whether or not to get one of those cooling pads to increase the removable of the heat as is hopefully making the internal fan to slow down and so less annoying noise from it.
Any thoughts on this really appreciated.
