Hi,

A cool pad, in my case, can only reduce from 5 to 8 degrees C, if you could get similar result, your machine still runs at over 80 degrees C, still too hot. dv6 laptops are hot, you can Google them.

Regards.

I know about coolers...but I beleive that is not the solution...I am thinking to change the thermal paste of CPU...I want to add a point that Its been only six months and the laptop does not have dirt or dust on fan.

does the cooling fan effects the performance of the notebook...because mine cooling fan has been stop working. is it compulsary that gamers should have a cooling pad.???

Check your bios setting to see if cooling fan is set to "always ON".
Be sure your laptop is on a flat surface - no table cloths or soft pad.
A cooling pad is not a bad idea. If that's not enough, then you may have to go change the Thermal paste on your cpu &b gpu. While you're at it, you might add a copper shim to both.
