What is the cpu & GPU usage like.
High usage will cause over heating & can be un-wanted programs or viruses ect.
Could also be hardware, fan worn, thermal sensor reading low, heat tubes fractured or thermal transfer paste/pads from CPU/GPU needs renewing or improving ...
More info on model & reviewing the basics of OS function is first step.
HP thermal design is never that good to start with & takes very little to cause serious temp levels in most of their Notebooks ...
