Overheating
Your device gets excessively hot during normal use. Overheating can cause shutdowns, performance throttling, and long-term damage to internal components.
Quick Fixes to Try First
Try these quick steps before doing a full repair. They solve the problem in most cases:
- Clean dust from air vents with compressed air
- Ensure the device has adequate ventilation
- Remove the case or cover if using one
- Close resource-intensive apps or programs
- Place the device on a hard, flat, cool surface
- Check that all fans are spinning
Why This Happens
Dust buildup blocking airflow and fans
Dried or degraded thermal paste
Fan malfunction or failure
Heavy workload in a poorly ventilated space
Blocked air vents
