Why are notebooks so hot?

In today's article, I will simply explain why notebook computers overheat after a certain period of time and what causes them.

Laptops get hotter than normal PCs because the case is smaller, the cooling units are calculated at minimum dimensions and the air circulation in the case is less than the normal PCs.

Notebook PCs start to overheat after a while, usually because the air ducts of their coolers are blocked or the speed of the fan decreases, which is usually caused by dust particles.

It uses a compacted copper-aluminum blend cooler that has been made compact in notebooks and has been minimized according to the case size by calculating the amount of air to pass over. Since these coolers are calculated according to the amount of air to be passed through them, even slowing the fan speed causes the cooler to not cool the CPU unit sufficiently. Failure of the cooler unit to pass the air sent by the fan well causes the unit to heat up continuously and after a certain period of time, it will cause your computer's graphics card and CPU to malfunction, which means that the motherboard replacement is a costly process.

If you are using your computer in a dusty or damp place, or if your computer's cooler part is overheating, know that your FAN and Cooler unit is full and should be cleaned as soon as possible. This cleaning will both prevent your computer from malfunctioning and prevent performance degradation caused by heat.

Below are pictures showing what a fan unit can become. I also cleaned my computer myself and wanted to share how it's done.

We begin to open the case of the computer.

The pattern of the fan is quite dusty.

The middle of the fan and cooler unit is pretty disgusting :)
