OMEN by HP 45L Gaming Desktop PC IDS Base Models (ArticunoI)

I noticed that my pc was not starting up.I pushed on the power button several times til the tower powered up.Usually a tower takes one push of a button then powers up.2nd i noticed in the past my tower lagged alittle for 2 seconds then back to normal.3rd I noticed in the Omen game hub that the temperature is at 118 degrees.I'm not sure if that is a good thing for the gpu which Rtx 3060 12gb.Please let me know if all is good.I ran tests on the system.All passed.Everything is up to date.

Hi @TheNwoLegend 

 

118 degrees Celsius (at idle or under load) on either or both: the CPU or the graphics card is really bad. 118 degrees Fahrenheit is okay.

 

You have systemic thermal failure with whatever component is showing 118 degrees Celsius requiring an immediate fix. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius.

 

Contact HP Support if in warranty.

 

Or find a local PC Tech for assistance if you are out of warranty.
