HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop (Model No. TG01-0023w)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

GPU is 1650 Super (HP OEM) with latest driver installed. BIOS is HP proprietary (Erica 8643) and doesn't give me fan speed info. In HWMonitor, GPU-Z, MSI Afterburner and Geforce Experience, my GPU's fan tachometer never moves from 0 rpm, even though I've confirmed the fan to be spinning and can adjust its speed via Afterburner. Is this anything to be worried about? Is it just a sensor failure, with no practical problems with the hardware performance?

 

Also, I'm quickly hitting a GPU temp of 80-83c while gaming, which is close to the limit of what a 1650 Super can handle (87-92c). Benchmark videos on youtube of people with the same game settings and hardware have their GPU temps sit at 60-70c. Are higher temps normal for this model because of the case's subpar airflow? If anyone has this same model from HP (TG01-0023w), I would appreciate if you could tell me what temps you got while gaming. I want to know if my situation is an anomaly or if this high temp is expected.
