    I didn't do any jobalines so can't comment on the reversals. BUT someone posted a link in yesterdays thread - I want to say late afternoon, that you could click on to see if your block had been removed.

    That Choice Lab was terrible, but it looks like there should potentially be a fat bonus.

    I actually read it very closely just a couple minutes ago. I'd be surprised if I didn't receive a large bonus.

    Morning everyone.

    Question for anyone familiar with laptop repair and maintenance: My fan seems to be running a little louder the last week or so, and has been running a little warmer than it used to. I was doing VDXs this morning while running RealTemp, and noticed my temps jumping up from around 60C to 80-90C whenever I submitted. The temps would then drop back down. Do processors normally have bursts of hot temps under load like that? It just seems a little...off. No shutdowns or BSODs. My guess would be that the fan needs a cleaning, and possibly new thermal paste for heatsink and CPU. Anyone have any ideas?

    I always believe that laptops more than desktops should be taken apart and cleaned more often.

    That being said, you could be using more processing power when you submit, but I don't think it would cause that much of a difference. I am wondering if there is some kind of fan failure also potentially happening.

    Either way, a great start would be a thorough cleaning.

    Yes. load 20 tabs of youtube and see what the fans do:cool:

    But yeah cleaning it does alot. I bought some air duster and it help alot out with the speed and the fans actually stayed in the low RPM for the first time in a while.

    Kind of glad the laptop died though. like my desktop way better for turking

    If this is the same one floating around from earlier me and another person could accept it but the sections in the link didn't seem to be functioning.

    another cheap option is using a cooling pad to put under the laptop...someone bought me one as a stocking stuffer for Xmas as I had an overheating laptop, and bam - no more problems and works as a good backup when I got tons of tabs up or when the device seems to be working harder than it should
