Product: hp omen 15 dc0085 tx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

just noticed that the bottom of my panel has been heating up for some reason. not sure what is causing it. feels a bit hotter than my cpu temps (idling around 45-50 degree c). this is a bit concering since this wasnt happening before. could it be because of the cpu heat getting transferred to the panel?

 

EDIT : just checked again after turning it on after about 8-9 hrs and the bottom of the panel is defintely getting hotter than the cpu on idle.  need to know what's causing it asap

@rohan98 Click here to see this video in full screen on YouTube to reduce Heat Inside the Laptop to Prevent Overheating,

 

Step 1: Removing dust and lint by cleaning vents

Most notebook computers have vents located around the case to allow air to flow through the case. If these vents become clogged, or if heat-generating parts become covered with dust, the fan cannot cool the components properly, because the laptop is hot and overheating becomes a problem. Lint and dust accumulation prevents air from flowing around the cooling fan blades and causes the fan to work harder and the laptop to get hot. If there is dust in the vents, you should clean the laptop by blowing out the dust from around the fan and heat shield. This prevents dust from accumulating.

It is not necessary to open the notebook (laptop) to clean out the dust with the canned, compressed air.

 

The following graphics show the dust accumulation on the inside of the laptop, but dust around the fans and heat shield of the laptop can be cleaned without opening the computer.
