System Temperature Question - PH315-54-760S

pggamer

I just received my laptop (model PH315-54-760S) yesterday and I noticed that the system temperature gets high (around 74 C, CPU and GPU are both in mid-40 C) and the fan speeds up when I am doing web browsing (youtube or watch stream). And all these happens only when I am using ethernet cable, after I unplug the cable and use wifi only, the system temperature never gets greater than 60 C and the fan never gets loud. Just wondering if this is normal or there is something wrong with my laptop.

This is the screenshot of my system temperature just from browsing youtube/streaming, I unplugged ethernet in the middle as you can see a flat low 50C section, and after plug the ethernet cable back in the temperature goes up again.

Hi,
Your temperatures are fine and it's normal, Ethernet connection may be faster than WiFi, so the system might draw more power, hence the higher temperatures for Ethernet connection, your CPU can withstand 100°C and when it reaches the maximum temperature it will throttle, so at the moment you don't need to do anything, when it reaches 95°C and above you can think of ways to reduce it.
