Pavilion 15t-cs300

[Icedog14xc]

Just bought this HP Pavilion 15t-cs300 with an Intel i7-1065G7 in it and during normal Microsoft updates I noticed it thermal throttled. I was hitting temps on the CPU in the 90 deg C very quickly. What is going on? Was this laptop not well designed for thermals? Do I need to upgrade the thermal paste? Thoughts and suggestions? I have already removed all the bloatware. I know this is a laptop and they lack in the thermal department but still this is bad.

@Icedog14xc is this something to do with ice hockey? Just curious!

Meanwhile, here's all you need to know about the device heating up & how to fix it:

Click here for steps to resolve overheating issues, you could try reducing the resolution on the in-game settings and switch the windows settings to performance rather than visual effects to make a minor change, however, the game may heat up your PC, hence make sure you are using a cooling pad as well, to be on a safer side.

Here's how you change windows settings:

• Go to Start Menu > click on Settings.
• Type performance > choose to Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows.
• In the new window, go to the Visual Effects and select Adjust for best performance.
• click Apply and Ok...this should do the trick.

I must let you know that its normal for a gaming PC to heat up, and with an Intel CPU such as the one you have, there's nothing to worry about, for details on why you don't need to worry: Click here to go through the CPU specifications, look under Tjunction of the CPU, it supports up to 100°C.
