[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1536308, member: 56379"] Thanks for the info. Other than you (sometimes having) the computer on your bed (which may impead cooling air flow)...I'm not seeing much wrong. Usually I would say the issue is a defective fan or the computer is dirty inside. There really isn't too much else that it can be (assuming the room temp is not too high & the computer is used on a flat surface with nothing obstructing the computers vents). If the fan is operating properly...then it's not the fan. Only thing left is dirt/fuzz inside. On a 2012 computer I would think that this is unlikely...but it may be the only thing left to investigate. Which means opening it up & checking. - Nick [/QUOTE]
