I noticed that very hot without doing anything complex; the fan runs
like crazy -

Is it actually blowing hot air, or the fans are running hard and blowing
cool air, and something else *says* that it's hot?

The air coming out is hot.

I opened the laptop to see if there was dust on the cpu fan but it is
clean

Also check the vents.  The air has to go in and out of somewhere, and if
they're blocked, it doesn't cool properly.  My laptop has a rather fine
grille on the outlet, which gets clogged up with fluff.

The grid is fine, if you want I can show you some pictures
let me know

Thanks in advance
