Summary:
1) When in "Power Saver" mode, GPU hits 75C+ when watching flash video, 80C+ and shutdown when watching physical DVD.
2) When in "balanced power" mode temps reach 80C+ and laptop goes auto-shutdown.
I have always assumed that this is just a result of use(many hours on lap, bedtop comforter) and that the components have simply lost structural and operational integrity because of overuse/heat.
Anything I can do/should check out? I have speedfan but don't really know how to optimize it. Anything I could replace myself within the laptop relatively cheaply to solve this?
