OMEN 15.6 inch Gaming Laptop PC 15-en1000 (2L1F2AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

Hello to everybody, I hope you are all doing great. My scenario is this... I got my HP omen gaming laptop almost 2 weeks ago. At first there were not any issues at all, everything seemed okay. As I am observant, I started to notice that when I played these certain games my temperature started increasing drastically for the past 1 week for no reason. Example: GTA5 (71 to 78) and BF5 (78 to 83). Also on idle, sometimes when I leave a game my temperature stays at 65, which is not normal for just watching videos or opening some small programs. My battery gets hot as well and thus I can see decrease in battery percantage and increasing in temperature. Any suggestions as what might cause the problem, because I have elevated my laptop from the very beginning, and it has the needed airflow for it to breath properly. Thank you in advance. Wish you all the best.
