Then when I put the CPU under load, it happily lets the CPU reach 100 degrees and starts (unsuccesfully) throttling to reduce temps for like a minute. I currently have it the Dell power manager set to "Ultra Performance" and the fans are not spinning at all when idle (at 55 degrees). On top of that, when stress testing the CPU the fan profile seems really weird. ![]() I would expect this behaviour on full 100% CPU loads, but even on single core applications? Once I start to do some CPU intensive work, even single core applications such as doing some computation in statistical software, the CPU temps spike immediately and frequently hits 100 degrees and starts throttling. ![]() Idle temperatures are around 55 degrees celsius at a max core frequency below 3 Ghz and just 2% CPU utilization. ![]() The laptop gets hot very fast and does not cool down well at all. I am now the proud though concerned owner of a Dell XPS 15 with an i9 configuration (I really need the 8 cores and the i7 8 core version was not available here).
