hp omen 15-ax237tx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Lately my HP omen 15 has been getting random lags spikes from a normal 130+ FPS to around 20 for a solid 10 seconds, before jumping back. I wondered why this was so i jumped onto HWMonitor to find my CPU running at very close to 100 degrees Celcius. I have an i7 7700HQ, GTX1050ti . Im not playing any intensive games as such, just some rocket league. 

Monitor: 1920x1080, 120hz
I've run some testing, while playing rocket league for about 25 minutes:
Using HWMonitor:
CPU: 95-100 degrees
GPU: 80 degrees
Using Speedfan:
Fan1: 4800RPM 
Fan2: 100RPM (not a typo, 100 rpm.)

i can only assume fan2 is the CPU fan.
Task manager: 
CPU usage: 45-50%
GPU usage: 99%
The laptop itself, full specs:

I bought it from a local Centrecom.
thanks in advance.

Welcome to HP Forums, 

This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips, 

Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out!

 

As I understand your device is overheating and has lags/spikes during games,

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

Did you update the BIOS? (Click here to find and install the chipset & graphics card drivers along with the BIOS update)

Have you used the HP Omen controller to test the temperatures?

(As HP doesn't recommend using 3rd party tools/apps to check the temperature as it may not be accurate)

Did you get any errors related to the CPU Fan? (If yes, visit this link for assistance: https://hp.care/2zINpsE )

 

While you respond to that, here's what you need to know:

 

Generally, when temperatures inside the case rise above 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit), the risk of damaging important internal components increases greatly and I recommend using the steps in the below link to have it addressed:

 

Use this link: https://hp.care/2sFzEsK to reduce the heat (If need be)
