Desktop-N2USAM5 HP OMEN
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

The desktop is running 80-85C when running Microsoft Flight Sim 2020. At this temp it will not last long. I need to create a new fan curve to increase the fan speed. Because of the poor design of the case I can not add a fan or even put in a larger fan. I can't use bios to set minimum fan speed because the computer has a UEFI boot, I can read the fan speed but can't change it. Any help would be appreciated. I bought this desktop to run the flight sim, $2500 internet box. I don't want to buy a case, mother board,and cooling system so I will have a descent system. [content removed.]

I dont know the exact components of your desktop but I can tell you that those temps are normal.

 

My i7 8700 runs at 100 °C in nearly every AAA game. I have this computer now for over two years. I never had any problem with it. Please dont try changing the fan curves since this wont really do anything but ereasing your guarantee.

 

Intel CPUs have a max temperature rating of 100+ degrees. Since your computer does not reach those temps, everything will be fine.
