Re: Battery Wear 5 % in one week :'(

no need to worry about battery wear it's ok for laptops.
To enhance the performance just use Intel Graphics.To do that right click on desktop and select "configure switchable graphics" and click Power Saving GPU and do ur work.Change to ATI if ur really need that(during designing or gaming) & Try using laptop most time on battery.
And at last link to all the drivers is
Software & Driver Downloads HP Pavilion dv6-6165tx Entertainment Notebook PC - HP Customer Care (India - English)

To download HP simple pass go to "Software-Security" in tree structure.

This coolpad has fans on the bottom.. but hot air comes from the left side in my dv6. There is nothing such hot in the bottom (i.e. HDD, RAM)
Plus this model is metal made. This might make laptop more warmer.

You have got it wrong. Your laptop has intakes a the bottom, that is where you want to pump in cool air. You DON'T want to block the hot exhaust from the left in any way. that is only going to compound the heating issues.

You want cool air pumped in from the the intake vent ( underside of the laptop) so that it can absorb the heat from the processor heatsink, get warmed up an exit freely through the exhaust at the left. That is why laptop coolers have fans at the bottom.

BTW metal chassis are better for heat dissipation than plastic ones. So that tends to make the laptop cooler. :)

From the looks of it, it has a fixed fan, which is not exactly the most ideal design. Hardly any laptop has its intake at the dead centre of its bottom and this is where the models with adjustable fans score big time. You can adjust the fan to exactly coincide with the the intake vent of the laptop. That should give the best cooling. Consider the following
