Fan speed and Temperature on Swift 3 i5 1240p

NeedFanSpeedControl

When im gaming on my swift 3 sf314-512, it is normal that it reaches 100 degrees on the P cores, i set it on performance mode but it seems that the fan doesn't ramp up enough, its quite concerning to me that it won't ramp the fan speed much

 This iGPU allows playing computer games to a limited extent. The VRMs (CPU voltage regulator) are not cooled in this model, don't let temperatures exceed 98°C. or the CPU will get burned (Intel Core i5-1135G7 max. temp. 100°C.). Don't use Ultra-High or maximum Performance Power Plan, but use the Balanced Plan instead and get at least a 14" powerful 5-fan cooling pad if you insist on playing heavy games. In advanced Power Plan settings, lower the maximum processor power state when on power from 100% to 95%.

The Swift 3 SF314-512 is not a gaming laptop and this laptop is limited to very basic gaming as you must be playing games that this laptop is not setup for and that is why the temps reach 100c.

This laptops memory can’t be increased, and it's memory is limited to the following specs below, so play games that your Swift laptop cpu and its Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics and ram is suited for, as if you play games that are more demanding, then your Swift laptop will reach the high temps that you are experiencing.

Memory specs of your Swift laptop:

1. On Board Memory Size: 8G/16G
2. On Board Memory Speed: Up to 4266MHz
3. On Board Memory Type: LPDDR4X

thank you, i used the balanced power mode (fn+f) and in valorant playing at around 100+fps the temperature did not exceed 95C, might have to mod the vrm with some heatsinks because its not cooled as you said and in teardown pictures
