Product: OMEN Laptop - 15-ek0013dx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I've had this issue for a while now, and it is starting to concern me. The CPU temperature reported in the Omen Gaming constantly fluctuates, showing a different value every second. This always happens, but it gets much worse when I am doing a CPU-intensive task, such as gaming.

 

Here's a video of it happening. It goes as low as 54 and as high as 72.

It is not necessarily overheating, but I worry that the computer might not be accurately sensing the temperature, which I think could be harmful. Is this behavior normal? Any suggestions what could be causing it?

 

My system has the latest BIOS, Windows update, and NVIDIA graphics drivers.
