Why is my laptop getting really hot and the fan is loud?
My laptop is 3 years old, and lately it's been getting crazy hot even just in the browser, the fan is screaming. What should I do?

The radiators are 99% clogged with dust and the thermal paste has dried out. Cleaning + replacing the paste fixes it. If you haven't taken it apart in 3 years - it's time to do it.
Check the task manager too - maybe you caught a miner or Windows is indexing something in the background.
After cleaning, put the laptop on a cooling stand, it noticeably extends its lifespan
