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

fan
status:                 enabled
speed:          4493
level:                  7

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?


I would also suggest that you install the invidia proprietary driver
module.
On my machine:

$ lsmod | grep -i nvidia
nvidia              10730592  107
drm                   289961  3 nvidia
i2c_core               55486  4 drm,i2c_i801,nvidia,videodev

Also:
$ yum list installed | grep -i nvidia | sort
akmod-nvidia.x86_64 1:331.89-2.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
kmod-nvidia-3.15.10-200.fc20.x86_64.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-3.15.7-200.fc20.x86_64.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-3.15.8-200.fc20.x86_64.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.x86_64 1:331.89-2.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates xorg-x11-drv-nvidia.x86_64 1:331.89-2.fc20 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates

On my machine, this considerably lowered the CPU generated heat.
