I've got this laptop for about 2 years. I've cleaned it up 2 times now with fresh compressed air and nothing changes. I never go less than 85 degrees and it can go up to 110 degrees when loaded (75-85%). Tried to open up my laptop but 2 screws "died", unremovable, i've applied to much pressure and i need to fix this problem to access the fan and replace the thermal paste. Any help ? Thanks.

If the BIOS also reads high temps,.. you instead need to use the "Power Saver" Plan (most power efficient) to keep the CPU cooler while you find and fix the cause.

EDIT:
You can also configure the Power Saver or create a new plan based on it, where you can lower the CPU clock... the CPU max may be set to maybe <50% to keep it running cooler...

I have to say that your temps seem quite normal. You would need to worry when you have those number on Celcius, not F as is in your case.

When you see articles and generally talk about pc temperatures you are always referring on Celcius.

It's Celcius :c

They're very loud once loaded. VERY LOUD, Maybe give this laptop to a specialist and see what he can do ...

The thing is that the temperature is very very very high for an Amd cpu apu. Unlike Intel, AMD can go up to 70 something degrees. A specialist might be needed. But before go into the BIOS and check the temperatures and voltages. It is possible for the mobo to have an extremely high vcore (I have trust issues with non bios hardware monitors).

Ok, i understand but what should i do ? What would you recommend me to do now.

Go to the bios of your laptop. When you turn on your laptop press Delete or F8 or F2 or whatever key your laptop manufacturer calls for. That way you go to the bios settings. There you should see temps straight from the motherboard. If the numbers are similar, chances are that you have a hardware problem.

My bet is that part of the heatsink won't be connecting to the cpu properly. But I think you should take it to a repair specialist.

One thing you can do for now, is set the Power Options power Plan to High Performance, this keeps the CPU fan running at full speed and should lower temps a bit if not back to normal. It should run down the battery sooner so keep that in mind if you do mobile computing. In Windows 10 ou also have the Battery Saving Mode to control CPU fan speed. These settings can lower CPU clock speed which also lowers the fan speed and cooling efficiency.

And there's also the BIOS power saving settings to consider adjusting for better CPU cooling.

changing my power plan to High Performance causes the fan to speed more and heat MORE ! I get around 100 degrees in High Performance. I might try the Bios thing.

EDITED: The high performance plan also keeps CPU clock speed and airflow at maximum but if airfow isn't enough to compensate for increased CPU speed and heat,.. this is the result you'd expect.. So it appears that it may have a clog in the air duct or the heatsink is not making efficient contact to the CPU... but if that's what's going on, the CPU should throttle down even in the high performance plan... and if it's not, the temp reading may not be real, and the BIOS temp readings are more accurate and dependable, so check what it reads.
