Hello,
I own an Acer v5-171-6878 which runs quite hot when idle. (about 60C, it's normal for this 11.6" laptop), but when it gets full load, can hit up to 86 C!
I have tried everything to cooldown, laptops bases, cleaning, exaustors, but didn't make a significant difference.
I'm willing to take some extreme solutions, and thinking about coating the heatpipe with a high termic conductivity thermal paste (Artic Silver X2). Is that a good idea?
From what i have read about heat pipes, the heat is conducted internally not externally, so i'm not sure if this will work.
What is yours tought about this?
