Sounds like dust build up.
Unless you feel confident in the ability of taking your computer apart, bring it to a tech shop and have them take the CPU/GPU fan off, and clean the vents of dust with an air compressor.
(Canned air will only do a somewhat okay job.)

If you feel confident, I would say do it then. I've seen sme very bad cases of dust in my line of work. I'd say its the cause of almost anything hardware failure related.

Just remember, properly lable which screws went where.
It makes life a lot easier when re assembling the laptop.

Imo this is kinda sad that people are recommending that he take apart his laptop for a temp that is well under half of what that processor can take. Guys that processor is safe up to 105*c and it's at 50*c max. Why are you commending Jim take apart his laptop? I have had three laptops over the last two years and they all idled in the 50s and low 60s and that was normal.

Op you laptop is fine don't worry.

I gave up on laptops a year ago. My last one got really hot and magically the laptop had issues and needed to send for repair. The lessons I learned were: cool it with cooling pad and get a desktop for gaming.

45C doesn't sound too hot. If you can't feel the heat I wouldn't worry.

As you are saying, I am getting the desktop only may be in in june or october .
The laptop that is hot -ing is a 4 year old laptop, nothing upgraded from then, and some websites say the you will void your warranty if U take apart your laptop, but mine, its warranty has already expired, 2 years ago.
But I think I should open up its part from bottom (today I seen it and has 22 screws to open from bottom to access hdd, ram, and may be the heatsink, because there's a small are open at bottom in the place where the fan should be.)
and clean the dust on the fan ??
