the thing was that i have been playing for quite some time. now most of my laptop left side is hot. the max temperature was 81 degree celcius.
and what about the warm on the right screen plastic panel?

Check out the vent and exhausts and making sure they are clear and clean of dust and dirt. That might help cooling down the left side of your notebook where all the ram, wireless. disk drive are found.

Right screen a bit warm - this could be caused by the charging unit (battery and power jack).

HP DV series, ALWAYS use it on a hard surface so it can breathe. They seriously suffer the bad video chip issue, and getting it hot is a major cause of it. Also a thick lint of dust usually builds up between the fan and the heat sink and stripping it out is the only way to clean it. Lost count the number of these I have had to clean up as much as do the GPU repair...
