Those are pretty nice temperatures. Can you give me a rough idea of your room temperatures? Actually I'm a bit worried, as from what I saw in some reviews online, GPU was hitting 87 degrees which is quite hot. Fortunately yours is running cool, and I hope mine runs cool as well when I buy it.

Also, since there is thermal headroom as CPU is in mid 80s, is it possible to increase that 45W power limit to something higher? Like 50 Watts or so?

Ambient Temperature in my room is about 20-25C Living in Scotland is generally cool if not cold half the time but I'm also in a large room so it never gets hot in here I also use a cooling pad what I linked in a previous post.

As for power configuration, I haven't tinkered with those settings.

Can you also let us know how the laptop performs thermally, without a cooling pad?

Sure, here ya go. there was some thermal throttling at the start but leveled off after a few minutes.

I also live in Scotland :-)

Looks alright from that screenshot.

Do you have the intel extreme tunning app? leave that running for 5 minutes on casual usage then after you have the graph filled up run doom and just play it for about 5 minutes then take a screenshot of each.

That will give you an idea if you're thermal throttling or if its just a power throttle. Do you get any hangs or noticeable frame stutter while playing doom, is it in combat heavy locations/traveling locations (areas with no combat) or while being idle and not paused does the game stutter

Also do all of this on the Turbo setting rather than performance mode.

Nice temperatures. One more thing, does maxing out the fans in manual mode allow the fan speeds to go higher than 6400 RPM?

Haven't tried but id assume no, I don't think the RPM will go any higher.

I actually saw this happen on two of the 2020 Asus rog laptops. Zephyrus G14 and Zephyrus Duo are on youtube which were tested in manual mode, and it really made a difference in terms of temps. So it would be really good if you can test this out for us, and would be good to know for you as well. Would be a plus point for me if I think of getting the i9 variant where almost any gains in order to help keep the temps down are welcome. I really wish to know if fans can go higher, and this possibility will give me another reason to get this.
