PHN14-5-Tested with Horizon Zero Dawn remastered & CPU temp raised to 93-100C°.Is this the normal?

Hello,

I recently bought an Predator Neo 14 PHN14-51 (Intel Ultra 9 185H cpu, 32GB of ram, 4070RTX). I have tested it with Horizon Zero Dawn remastered and the CPU temperature raised to 93-100C°. Is this the normal and intended behavior? Thanks.

Consider lowering it. Temperatures should be below 90°C.

Solution-

1)Fps cap 

Capping fps to lower value like 60, 100, 120, 140, etc can greatly lower cpu temperature and keep cool

(Cap you fps through Nvidia software or use RTSS)

2)Prop the laptop up with books around the sides to reduce heat

Grab stack of 2-4 books that are equally thick. Slide the spine of a book 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) under the right side of the laptop. Do the same on the left side of the laptop.

[You can also Buy good cooling pad in which stands are inbuilt, its better than books]
