Dell Inspiron N5010 Temperature Issue!

What's the room temperature?

The Tripler

I don't have exact ranges of temperature for your notebook but with a notebook with a Core I 7 processor and a fairly high end video card, the heat generated by the note book is going to be impressive.  I certainly suggest continue to monitor the system with CPUID to get an idea on what the typical temperatures generated by the system.  I also suggest periodically running the fan and thermal extended diagnostics test.

The preceding link gives instructions on running extended diagnostics. Once in the extended tests look for fan and thermal tests.  It will warn you if there is a problem.

TB

I too have the same problem. I guess the cooling system fitted is not adequate to cool down the system. The Touchpad as well as the body become very hot while playing games and the fan is loud and incompetent...

This is my first and last purchase of Dell if this heating issue is not solved or Dell should replace the heatsink free of cost.

If anyone has resolved this issue..then please please.....post your solution

 My laptop temperatures are 52 degrees when idle and 65-70 after 10 min gameplay...The heat is so much that the entire body gets hot.

Dell must act on this issue.

I purchases a dell inspiron n5010 with core i5 and i feel i heat too much as u can see my speed fan pic..

dell should solve this problem as soon as possible other wise i quit to use dell .....

any on have any suggestion for me than please reply

thanks in advance... 

Hello.

I've the same problem too. When system is idle the CPU temperature is 77C-85C degrees, and cooling system(fan) works very loud. When i start play game, after 15 minutes notebook shuts down (((

I dont know what to do with it, and i very disappointed with this notebook and with Dell.

Will Dell developers give us some answer on this questions?

I recently (just over 30 days old) bought n5010 laptop and it's burning hot!! I bought it for my kid and it just burns - hot air blows from the left side and the bottom gets hot - his laps! I took the battery out to see if it was causing the heat, but it

made no difference.

This is ridiculous for Dell to be selling a dangerous product like this. How many people should get burned or suffer from harmful radiation due to the heat before you fix it? I'm furious and kicking myself for going with a "brand" name!

Hi All
My laptop is DELL N5010 I5 WIN 7 64 bit
after open any game 10 min it's too hot the cpu
plz ,, I want end the issue

I have the same problem.M friends are having sony  viao.I didn't notice this problem on sony.but when I use my inspiron 5010 for 1hrs it's too hot.plz help me. 

Same here i7 + hd5650 gets too hot (burns your finger on the side of esc key) and shut itself down sometimes. Cleaning the ventilation grill with air and a brush helps a bit. 

Not happy!

I bought d same series of laptop N5010 wid i3 processor, 320gb Hdd, 1gb ram, 512 Mb Ati radeon graphic card. my laptop started giving me heating issues after 3-4 months of purchase & after that twice my heatsink & motherboard has been changed by dell. But still d problem arises after 2-3 months of use.

Recently i found a solution, just open ur laptop, remove the heat sink, & open the fan & clean it from inside, also change the thermal compound on the processor & graphic card. This is wat i did & d results were excellent.... d temp has dropped from 75-80 C to 40-45 C.

1st of all dun click the "GAME EXPLORER" at the start there! (u get what i trying to said) follow this 2 link

kuyadoconcept.blogspot.com/.../disable-game-explorer-feature.html

2nd supportapj.dell.com/.../driverslist.aspx upgrade ur bios to A15 (compulsory) u need insert ur battery & use power brick adapter & close all program that running (don't turn off ur power when during/after installation) when is done ur lappy will auto-restart!

3rd if u playing old game like counter strike (open task manager) u will notice rundll32.exe is running then u should END PROCESS it! kuyadoconcept.blogspot.com/.../store.html *download kudayo explorer restarter to disable all time* so u no need so troublesome

i'm dell inspiron 15R N5010 user & my lappy still kicking strong. as long ur lappy at underneath got some ventilation then it might help a lot. even though germany ambient temp r cooler than M'sia. i bought Zalman NC-2000 at amazon germany cos my cousins stay there. around 40-50 euro only! so a cooling pad r badly needed!

for those having issue on N5110 i suggest returning it cos might due to sandy bridge issue! i know a guy having hang + lag issue when inserting pendrive for transferring files & write/copy sry i can't help!

still got any issue just share v me i will tried my best to help u guys out! respect~

Hi, I'm suffering the same. Processor is on fire, HDD too just add bacon and here we go. Intel i7, ATi HD 5650.

Service replaced my heatsink several times.

When it was new, everything is ok, but after few months fan fills up with dust and I'm back to square one. I'm very careful about dust around my PC but it will happen anyway.

I also tried to clean it with air, but this helps very little. Well, it is no good way to clean it from outside.

I would clean it from inside, but heatsink is all the way down under motherboard and something could be easily broken.  

Would somebody share experience with cleaning and mainly with motherboard removal? Thanks :-)

Suggested diagnostics won't help, because PC is OK, there is nothing wrong with it.
