      heavy loads.
Like I said fan is working just fine.

fan
status:                 enabled
speed:          4493

commands:       enable, disable
commands:       watchdog <timeout> (<timeout> is 0 (off), 1-120 (seconds))

2. Check to be sure the the Graphics chip cpy is also running and at
      full speed.
I already had Nvidia Optimus (NVS 4200) disabled long time ago. I am only
using Intel HD 3000 (AFAIK).

How do I figure this out?

OK.
So, since you are using a lot of multimedia, it seems to me
that the Intel HD3000 is also incorporated into the CPU.
Thus the very high CPU usage while doing graphical UI's
and multimedia.

Only thing I can suggest is to disable the Intel graphics
and re-enable NVidia. This will reduce the cpu overhead
and heat generation;  and just be sure the Nvidia card's
fan is at full speed.

I would also be sure that you have a full complement of
cabinet fans.
