Overheating issues

[Higlac]

I have a laptop, nothing really special, dual core 3 GB of ram, and a 7150M. It handles episode 2 on minimum for about 10 minutes with about 20 FPS. Then it slows waaayyy down, to about 7. I minimize EP:2 and I start up coretemp. My CPU is running about 20*C warmer than normal idle temperature. Normal is about 55. Are there any cheap tricks to keep it from overheating? The only fan on it is extremely small.

Keep it on something cold, if all else fails, get something like this http://www.amazon.com/Vantec-Lpc-401Lapcool3-Notebook-Cooler-80X80X10Mm/dp/B000AGK8NI

get a gas duster thingy they are like $10 a can open up the laptop and let it rip.it does wonders for my Desktop system.

I would use it on a table rather than on carpet or your lap since those materials can come up around the multiple vents and not let air flow. Same with dust, get a can of air and try to clean it out (don't hold the can upside down because moisture will come out of the can which is bad for the PC).

This is a crappy picture of the only fan on the case. I use it on a desk.
