hi there i just got a problem with my laptop heating up, its Vaio E Series VPCEA16FG, i just opened up the laptop's case and found the fan, but i have no idea how to properly clean it, i use an ear stick/bud (whatever you call it to clean ears) to clean the fan by sticking it inside, and slowly taking out the dust, but the process is too tedious so i'm asking if there is any other way to do this?
i do have a small portable vacuum, but it is not strong enough, and my local store doesn't sell any of the so-called "compressed air" to clean the fans, any ideas?
the cleaning with the ear stick/buds do works though, i monitored cpu and gpu temp, it goes down from usually 80 C to around 50 C for cpu, and 95 C to 75 C for gpu
