IdeaPad z580 heating issues

[SoulReaver19]

I recently bought this laptop, and it already has heating issues. It gets to 140 degrees fahrenheit when idling and 170 when playing games. I feel the fan blowing harder than it should when idling too. What could be the problem? CPU usage is about 1-5%, no overclock.

is this brand new laptop or refurbished? did you experience this right out of the box? Can you try starting in safe mode?

Brand new. At first it felt kindof hot, but I didn't pay attention to it. But after a few weeks I started to worry and downloaded a temp monitor. Gpu 60c without any activity, cpu 65.. And I smell burnt rubber

so it happens all the time or in intervals? http://www.laptopmag.com/review/laptop/lenovo-ideapad-z580.aspx has a nice comparison graph for some features and it has the laptop at ～88Ｆ.

Sometimes, for 1-2 minutes it drops about 10f then immediately raises again. Very weird =/. I tried safe modus, still the same issue, so I guess it's an hardware problem.

if it is recently bought you can use warranty... i think it might be the best/freest option
