hp pavilion gaming 15 dk0xxx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello

I have a hp pavilion gaming 15 dk0xxx. I just changed my ram from 8GB to 16GB. I also replaced my thermal paste and cleaned the air system.

 

I don't know what were the temperatures before the change but, while gaming DOOM eternal or COD warzone, I had low frames.

 

Now I have better frames between 70 and 90 but, my temperatures hit 100 C. I am not sure if this is a risk and, since I am an amateur changing thermal paste and cleaning, I am worried about it. 

 

While it was turning on after the change, it restarted one time and threw a message about my BIOS. Then it was normal. 

 

I checked and my BIOS version and is Insyde F.40 11/4/2020, 3.0.
