HP OMEN 15-dc0011nw
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello everyone, I would like to ask a question about the temperature of the processor, namely I have a laptop HP OMEN 15-dc0011nw which in stress, with more demanding games like Battlefield V reaches a temperature of 75-93 degrees Celsius ... Should I give it to the service so that the poor would not was he tired or is it normal in this model? The laptop is new and is happening from the very beginning, or 3 months. The i5 8300H processor. In Metro Exodus all the time around 85-93 degrees Celsius using a processor at 50% ...

Hi Wajhan,

 

It's high... but it's not too bad. These CPU's seem to hit around 60-80 average.

I would try keep it well-cooled (not in a really hot room) and maybe just give the fans / vents a little blow out. 

The CPU throttles automatically and in extreme case shuts down if it heats up too much to prevent damage.

for an i5 it is a bit too hot. might wanna give it to the service center to check things out. if the laptop still runs hot after the check, might wanna try undervolting the cpu and change the thermal paste. undervolting the cpu is a fairly easy process and theres a lot of videos on youtube explaining how its done. changing the thermal paste on the other hand is a bit tricky and requires you to open up the laptop and remove the heatsink to change the paste. before trying to open it up look for someone who has experience doing such things or just look up a lot of videos online
