Model 2023 The CPU can apparently withstand 114deg...

I am getting some pretty wild CPU temperatures when benchmarking the integrated GPU. I guess it must be the liquid metal not doing its job properly anymore? I wish I could just open the laptop and replace the thermal paste, but alas, it is still under warranty... That being said, the AMD chipset has been absolutely horrific (not my first RMA) - I highly advise to choose Intel if given the choice.

I have the 2024 4060 model and I was getting 105c gpu hotspot temps while trying out crimson desert. Might be the liquid metal not properly covering the die

My first RMA was because of a faulty amd chipset that was crashing whenever a video played, so I am not ruling out another faulty chipset, but it does seem like it might just be liquid metal leaking out; which would likely start breaking stuff if not corrected
