Hey all,
a few months ago my Clevo P150EM crashed, for no discernible reason. A crash every now and then isn't a big deal, but once I rebooted my laptop I noticed the CPU got hot fast. I've used Throttlestop to limit the fan speed to suit my needs, but after the crash it showed me only 4 threads as opposed to 8 previously.
Performance isn't what it used to be, e.g. a typical 3dmark 11 result would be ~6000, but now only ~2000.
I haven't applied a thermal paste or cleaned the fans since I got...
My i7 3720QM seems to screw up
