Hey everyone,

I bought a brand new laptop this week, and ran some stress tests on it (aida64, XTU, heavy load and prime95). When the charger was plugged in aida64 and prime95 both had thermal issues. Aida said there was throttling, prime just gave me temp issues (task manager said all my cores were at 100% though). The other two tests were only run without the charger.

Specs:
i7-8750h
RTX2060
16GB

Any ideas?
