Spectre x360 2020 High screen temperature when in "tablet mode"

[Rikyuri]

Hi, I recently bought this laptop for the university. In these days I tryed to use it as I will use it in class. 

When i use it as a tablet, no matter what thermal profile I choose since when I use it as a tablet the fan is always quiet and I can't set it to stay a bit higher, the screen in the lower half and especially in the left corner (I suppose because it is on the cpu) become quite hot (I suppose like 40+ °C).  Is this normal? If it is normal there is a solution? Because like this is pretty unconfortable to use it to hand write for 3-4 hours.

Update: In the BIOS there is a  moda called always on fan, i tryed to activate that but the fun still of untill the pc get decently hot (in tablet mode)

Hi@Rikyuri,

Request you the following list describes some causes of excessive heat & Blue Screen issue 

Don't worry I'll try to help you out.

• A new component, such as a hard drive, is added. The extra component causes the power supply to work harder and generate more heat. Extra heat also radiates off the new component and adds to the temperature inside the case.  
• Over time, some cooling fans might slow down and wear out, as the laptop is getting hot, depending on the usage of the laptop.  
• High ambient room temperature.  

Step 1: Removing dust and lint by cleaning vents  

Step 2: Ensuring proper space for ventilation  

Step 3: Updating the BIOS  ( Make sure Power adaptor connected to notebook )

Step  4: Update the Windows 

Step  5:Update Drivers from HP Support Assistance 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
