Throttling down the CPU won't help much, since the CPU and GPU have independent cooling systems.

Thanks for that info. Slowing the CPU down works on many laptops that use a single heatsink for the CPU and GPU but you're right, on the G53W, this trick will not help out much at all.
The only option is a thorough cleaning. How hard is it to get to the heatsinks? Blowing the dust out of a laptop can significantly improve cooling, especially if this has never been done before. This might be a good first step if Alesat is not comfortable replacing the heatsink paste.
