Heat Fix, please help. (Laptop)

[ItZzSora]

I have a Lenovo Idea Pad z565 laptop,
Processor: AMD Phenom II N660 Dual-Core Processor, 3 GHz
RAM: I don't know the brand name, 8GB (7.74 usable)
Graphics: AMD ATI Radeon Mobile 4200 Series
OS: Windows 7 professional

I cleaned out my fans and such, and my laptop still runs at 70c when idle (I can see by using Speedfan 4.1.5) Under load, it goes up to 81c and seems to stay there no matter what, closing all programs, etc. I don't know much about heat (Usually because I am careful with heat in my gaming rig) but Is this normal for laptops?

Secondly, for my HDD/Ram (I'm not sure which is on this laptop)
I have 300GB of HDD space, 80 Usable
I have 8GB of ram, 7.74 Usable

On the front left part of the laptop (With it open, facing me) it gets very hot no matter what I do, upon launching the laptop it seems a cool 60-70F. Under load however, it gets up to 55C (I monitor using Speedfan 4.1.5), which seems very hot to the touch on my laptop. However, on the underside of the laptop it is very very cool, which confuses me, I have the laptop raised so air can come out of the bottom, and I'm just wondering why my ram/hdd gets very hot.

If it's laid out like the z585, that left side of the palm rest is right over the RAM.

If it's running at 70C on idle something's very wrong. When you cleaned the fans, did you remove and replace the heatsink?

 

[ItZzSora]

I did not, and it does seem like the heatsink stays hot, and it seems like there isn't enough space for air to move freely inside of it, and I do not currently have a heatsink to replace it with.
Sidenote: Their thermal paste is very messy haha

Could you recommend a heatsink for my laptop?

 

[Saberus]

Well, I meant replace as in put it back after taking it out, which is what you did. I take it you made sure the fins weren't gunked up when you cleaned it, and used fresh thermal paste?

Given the largely proprietary nature of laptop motherboard design, you'd probably have to get the same model heat sink as what you have. Lenovo should have a service guide that will list the FRU number for the heat sink. (FRU is Field-Replacable Unit)

 

[ItZzSora]

I see what you mean, and yes. I applied new thermal paste.

After doing so, at idle I get about 63c on my CPU and my HDD is around 48c.

I'll update when I run under load

Okay so after about 10 mins, running at 98-100% CPU load I get to a max temp of 86C on my CPU
and 52C on my HDD, and the ram is considerably better, but still hot (Considering the HDD is 130F I don't think I'm going to worry about it)
