I have a HP Pavilion ze2000 laptop. with AMD Semp processor and a ATI radeon mobility 200 GPU. Right now speed fan is showing me 50 deg C on temp1 (asume MB) and 55 deg C Core. The CPU fan is not on at the moment (checked visualy). Is this to high for a laptop or do laptops generaly run twice as hot as a desktop? My Intel dual core desktop runs at 29 deg C Cpu and 33 deg C MB.


There any programs that will force that fan on? I know it works as i have seen it spin. but it never seems to start on its own.

I took the laptop apart and cleaned the heatsink and fan, installed AS5 between the GPU, CPU and heatsinks. It had thermal pads prior. This seemed to net no change or it might have even gotten slightly hotter.

Any ideas? i do use a usb dual fan cooler under the laptop
 
29C and 33C are actually pretty low temps. I think your laptop temps are normal.
 
I have almost the same laptop (Compaq M2000), no matter what, i can have mine underclocked to 800mhz and it wont go under 50c unless i just turn it on. And under load i have had it at 75c but that was because the heatsink was dirty but now its at about 65c under load.

that was my desktop temps i quoted for comparison to the laptop..

JT, you have the amd chip and ati video in yours too? I The bios doesnot seem to have many options in it, how did you underclock?
 
Your temps don't sound very much out of the ordinary. My Presario v2000 goes down to ~48C at idle, while under load I have seen temps as high as 108C. (admittedly, this was after an overnight stint of folding on the bed, but still....)
