630M GT high tempetures

Hi,guys...
I got an ACER 5755g laptop with the 630m gt GPU...
i got the 3.10 kernel and the 319.32 driver...My problem is that when I'm playing Dota 2 i got about ~100 C tempetures and shutdown but on windows i got max 90 C tempetures and everything is OK...An other strange think is that the laptop's fan is always slow even when the card has tempetures like 100 C...
Has everyone else the same problem?Sould I downgrade something?
Thanks!

Maybe your notebook cooler need to be clean from dust

I love archlinux: the last STABLE kernel release + the last STABLE DE release + the last STABLE apps releases. The upstream developers decide what is STABLE.

If you got about 90 C on your videocard sensor, it's never good, no matter what OS you're running. Last time it happened to me, my laptop's motherboard got pretty much destroyed in a week - nothing could be done after. Once in a while you'll just find that laptop stopped working. Fix it. Or buy cooler pad. Don't leave it like that.

P.S. Lol, the last application my laptop was running is that damn Dota 2
