Motherboard comes up to 56-58*

To be able to fix the issue with your motherboard constantly overheating, you will first of all need figure out where that heat is coming from. When there is no air flow then it means that there is no heat transfer, and therefore you will need to figure out where the air vents are on the  computer. Check to find out if they blowing hot air, or if the air is there barely a breeze even in the cases where the fan has been overtaxed.

Most commonly,  you will find that the accumulation of dust in the vents and also fans which will occurs through the cooling channels will be the main reason as to air flow will be restricted, and therefore you will need to try cleaning it out . You will need to turn you laptop upside-down and then see what is in there.

Motherboard comes up to 56-58*

I don’t think there’s a problem with that temperature. It is normal for the temperature to go up when you are playing games. In my computer, the first time I run it in the morning, the temperature registers at about 47 – 54 degree Celsius. It goes up as I run applications. When I play a game, it goes up as high as 75 degree Celsius.

If you want to keep an eye on your CPU’s temperature, the best way to do it is with a gadget called “All CPU Meter” which you can install on your computer. It installs perfectly on 64-bit Windows 7. To try it, go to All CPU Meter and download it or click All CPU Meter ZIP to download the ZIP file directly.

Once downloaded, unpack the ZIP file then double-click “All_CPU_Meter_V4.7.3.gadget” to install. At first, you will not have temperature readings from your processor. To display the temperature, you need to download PC Meter 0.4 Beta. Unpack the ZIP file on a new folder on your system drive then right-click “PCMeterV0.4.exe” and select “Run as administrator.”

In PC Meter window, go to “Options” and check “Run On Windows Startup” or check everything. After this, go back to the All CPU Meter gadget, right-click it, and select “Options.” Next, go to “Options” tab then in “Show CPU temperatures,” select “ON (PC Meter).” Set the other options if you like then click “OK” when you are finished.
