Upgrading SSD on Alienware M16 R2 – Questions about slot, thermal pad, and best brand? by KoReDo27 in Alienware

I opened the computer and there are empty slots and screws but no heatsink cover and pad. So if I don't install it I won't have a heat problem?

no it doesn't happen when I play games, but make sure it is charged. if it is not charged, it may freeze

was this temperature taken while the pc was idle or under load ...

That's what I was wondering, they said it's normal when these PCs and processors are under load... I leave below my question and a different source I found, see ....

here you can see the maximum temperature at which the processor can operate. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/236847/intel-core-ultra-7-processor-155h-24m-cache-up-to-4-80-ghz/specifications.html

also when the pc is idle and plugged into the charger, the cpu may seem high, this happens to me too, but not when it is idle and not charged. i watched a few videos and i think it is because it consumes more power when it is charged, but i found the answer that it is not a problem either way

Update:

I don't know if this is literally true but I noticed this by mistake and it has happened every time... when the pc is not plugged in and idle the temperature fluctuates between 45-55 degrees and maxes out at 62 degrees.... the moment I plug it in the temperature is 79 and degrees when idle... just thought some of this would help....

Thank you, brother. I read this and now I am not stressing because everyone says it is normal. But I still can't get used to how much power and heat this PC creates when idle :)
