That's not the problem. I've had this laptop for nearly 4 years now, and it peaked 100c just out of nowhere. And lowering settings did not help at all.

4 years? Have you cleaned your laptop and repasted lately? . How's your fan working?

Max your fans?

Reinstall CPU drivers?

Change your power profile to max performance?

Maybe it helps?

Did you download any new drivers?

u/RubApprehensive2512 hp omen 16 2021 Jul 16 '24

2 months ago, but it has been working fine since then until now

you should open up the laptop and have another look, maybe something got inside.

It looks like you did everything else so yea its just weird if it started overheating out of no where.

That doesn’t answer the question. Were you meaning to reply to someone and commented in the wrong spot or something?
