    Also i cleaned the fans of dust, and the thermal paste is changed about 7 months ago

    Room temp is 40c? I’d say pretty fucked lol.

    Bro get ghelper. Armory crate sucks. Also undervolt your cpu and get a laptop cooling stand. And wait for winter. Usually ambient temperature also matters

  4. I mean 40 degrees room temperature is pretty hot. I also see 29% CPU usage, which is quite a bit. The high room temperature and 29% CPU usage combines might explain the high temperature already.

    I’m guessing there’s a massive turbo power increase allowance on these, just like 8th and 9th gen had. Drop it to like 25 watts. You’ll probably lose 100mhz or 200mhz off the peak of turbo at most but have huge power/heat savings. Use Intel XTU to play around with this.

    40 degrees inside? How are you still alive?

    40 c room temp? You rent a room in hell?

    40C indoors? Damn, I start crying when it’s 28C outside in the summer.

    It’s perfectly fine?

    Laptops are designed to go high on temperature, goal being *portable* and *quiet* and stuff

    Guy uses his laptop in Finnish sauna

    seeing it runs 56 idle it all fits in. the thing is most test cases or comparisons have 22ยฐC or so ambient.

    relative air humidity also plays part in heat transferring.

    Damn brother. Hope youโ€™re surviving over there

    Come to Yakutia, it’s 0c outside and 20c inside.

    I barely hit 60c even while gaming and PC is quiet as laptop when idle

    It’s normal. Your room is hot like a hell, your tiny fans and tubes inside laptop trying to cool your CPU using hit air.

    But don’t worry, laptops designed to work like that. CPU will be OK all the time being 80-90ยฐC, same with GPU.

    By the way, PC easy to cool, and often we see lower temperatures in PC, but nothing wrong will happening with PC if CPU and GPU so hot too.

  15. Both humidity and high ambient temperature make it hard to cool stuff, you’re just gonna have to live with it I’m afraid

  16. Switch away from Turbo mode in Armory Crate.

    Get one of those external laptop coolers. Itโ€™s like a little desk stand that plugs in and helps it keep cool. You set the laptop on it during use.

    well, laptops are notorious for running hot, especially under harsh conditions. you are “fucked” as far as that you cannot really use it, but i think the machine should survive it.

  19. Air conditioning helps my console reaches low digress, but i wear a jacket๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ”

    I’m just here for the “your room is 40c” comments ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    As a Malaysian i can relate to this kind of room temperature, even with windows open its easily 35c-37c
