Okay thanks guys, I'll get that done and see what happens.

So I should just get some thermal paste, clean it off and reapply, and see where I am from there? As in if it's still overheating then get a new cooler

Uhm okay, I just said I thought it was working cause it seems normal. How can I test to see is it working?

How could I test to see is it working? BIOS detects it And detects no failures. Fan seems to be spinning normally ~1500-1600 rpm

Yeah I'm gonna try and apply the new thermal paste see does it solve my issues. If not I'll buy a new cooler.

You looking for a new one or used? If it's new then the GT 1030 seems like a pretty good option. Used you could get an r9 280 for pretty cheap

I have considered getting a new cooler but I'm wondering is it necessary since I don't plan to overclock the system, nor was the temperature caused by oc'ing, I mean the cooler seems to be working. Do you think it's necessary?

Thank you for everyone who helped, I think I'm going with the ThinkPad on this one, as the warranty makes me feel safer.

Hello, I'm looking into buying a laptop, I'm worried that this one might bring me issues seeing as there is no warranty mentioned, but it's really good value. Any opinions/suggestions...
