I've got an Asus gaming laptop and the model is G60J. The rog model.

I know some of the basic ways to keep my laptop cooler such as keeping my room at 60 degrees Fahrenheit and to not have anything flammable or flimsy underneath it while it's running.

Also I have trend micro and ccleaner on here. I run CCleaner twice every week just to make sure no kind of bs is on my hardware.

On average each harddrive temp goes about 65 degrees Celsius and when i'm playing a game let's say vindictus or unreal tournament 3 it goes up to 74 Celsius. Not too bad.

So yeah if you guys don't mind I would like to know how to keep my laptop cooler if it ever goes over 90 Celsius and some other neat stuff to protect my laptop.
