New to this community but hoping to get some insight here, has anyone else had issues with the Intel Core Ultra 7 processors overheating on only a couple of cores? See the attached screenshot, it seems to only be an issue on cores 9, 10 and 13. I tried replacing the thermal paste with Kryonaut as well as the thermal pads for good measure, but this is still happening. If it was the whole CPU that would be one thing, but the fact that it is happening on only a few cores makes me wonder if there is a defect? Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a solution?
Also separately, has anyone had issues with the new framework 13 overheating? It seems to me like it’s always quite hot and the fan on it barely pushes any air. I checked the fan when I replaced the thermal paste and it seems fine, is there a way to increase airflow or get a bigger fan into the laptop without putting it on a cooling tray?
If the current power is 28.7W, 87C is normal. If the load is unbalanced, you may get 90+C in some cores and 60~70C on other cores
The fan has some delay to reduce noise, on instant max load your CPU might underclock a bit for up to half a minute before the fan speed catches up
But is drawing nearly 30W of power, and hitting 87C normal for an unbalanced load, even if the load is less than 5%? I’m currently working on my own overheating problem with an Ultra 7 165H, where it looks like only some specific cores are overheating under load. I might be wrong, but an unbalanced load feels like it should be just spiking at least the temperature. Not causing it to consistently gain temperature. If an unbalanced load is the cause, is there any way to spread out the workload across the rest of the cores via software?
87C is normal for 30W load, the 5% might be measurement error
Hi! I have the exact issue with Ultra 7 155H (not in Frame laptop or case). But I have an ES CPU and always thought that there’s no such issue with usual production CPU. Is your CPU an ES or it’s a production sample (not sure if the Core temp shows that, but CPU-Z marks an ES CPUs, AIDA64 also does) ? Did you manage somehow to cope this overheating ?
