By the way - I could max the temp to 73-75 with 100% CPU before, but

cleaning (maan, there was a WALL of dust in the heatsink!!) the temp

55-58 max on 100% CPU!
Nice, on several laptops (including my R3470) I've managed to hit the
thermal limit and the machine has shut off. If you really want to
heat up your laptop, try running the mprime (or Prime95 on windows)
"torture test." Other ways to overheat your laptop include compiling
something large while working on an unsaved document :-P
I'm pretty positive, that before cleaning that would hit the thermal limit
(hitting the thermal limit twice, while playing some 2D game made me clean
it in the first place), but now, running prime95 torture test for some
time set temp at stable 57 degrees :)
