I think many notebooks are doing this in Melb's excessive heat at the moment

Just point a small desk fan at it and you'll be right, or look into a notebook cooling pad.

make sure the processor intake can get fresh air, and set power mode to somthing like game where cpu is dropped back in speed

air intake is bottom right btw

I dont think you should have to do that - go with warranty
