Hello everyone.
TL;DR - Laptop chassis reaches (i think?) more than the 45C that meets all thermal requirements. Should I worry?
Recently got a laptop for my SO (i'll leave specs below) and I've noticed on the notes added it says the chassis can reach around 45C and that through testing it meets all thermal requirements.
Then while playing Red Dead Online (not specific to the game, just the only one we've played so far) the chassis gets so hot you cant even touch it for more than a second or two. I mean fair enough I havent actually checked the temperature, but that does seem a lot more than the 45C.
This isn't a problem for us tbh, although i guess it gets pretty hot in that area, but im more concerned on whether the chassis/components can/will withstand those temperatures in a reasonably long term (we average maybe 2-3h a day gaming).
