And I wish CPU heat was directed straight out the machine. It may not technically be considered 'HOT', but it is far from ideal. 79вЊ is not 'fine' in my book - especially if it sits at that temp for any length of time. Sadly, in the interest of keeping their pads light (notebooks are primarily for 'road-warriors', after all), pads with external power supplies are hard to find so you may need a notebook cooling pad like this one then use a small, lightweight USB wall-charger/adapter to power it.

Powering the pad's fans with an external power supply (instead of through the notebook's USB port) does not increase the demands (and thus, generated heat!) on the notebook's battery and/or power circuits. power supply - at least when taxing your system. I also recommend you use a Notebook Cooling Pad w/ext. I recommend you remove the battery, all drives, and all access covers and blast out the dirt from all the cavities, vents, and cracks with a suitably equipped (with a moisture and particulate filter) air compressor or can of compressed dusting gas. Notebooks are not designed to accommodate proper cleaning even though their fans draw in, and pack in heat trapping dust and dirt as well. Plus, PC cases are designed to be opened up to expose the innards for easy cleaning of heat trapping dust drawn in by the cooling fans.

Full size PC cases are challenged to keep innards cool during heaving demands (like gaming), so it is no wonder notebooks struggle - especially with gaming, which is about the most demanding task we can ask of our systems. The problem is notebook makers can pack the power inside those tiny notebook cases, but they cannot pack the cooling. It should be noted that, in spite of what notebook marketing weenies would like us to believe, notebooks do NOT make good gaming machines or 'desktop replacements'. While the CPU may be able to handle that with no problems, other devices and circuits may not - at least not for long durations. I don't like my temps to hit and sit above 60вЊ for very long as stability issues can develop. 'In theory', your temperatures are fine, but I too would be concerned if my notebook temps were hitting 70вЊ. Cool enough maintain stable operation, prevent excess current and minimize component aging is what you are looking for - and that would be called the 'normal operating environment', or operating temperature 'range'. I don't believe there is such a thing as an 'ideal' temperature. Please provide me with the ideal temperatures for i3 processor and please suggest me the best DIY cooling solutions to keep temperatures under control. I am really worried about the temperature readings as sometimes it gets too hot and laptop fan sound in bit higher than usual. But the max temp it has reached is 79'c(while playing games) no more than that.

I used CPUID HWMonitor Software to get the temp readings(see the file attached) and I can see that it is almost hitting 60-70'c with just four tabs of Chrome and HWmonitor software running.
