    Hey guys, got my new laptop yesterday and I think it is pretty hot even tho I'm not even playing anything... I can't know for sure cause until yesterday I had a 5 years old HP with an old i3 cpu and intel 2000 or something like that.
    Maybe laptops getting hotter nowadays?
    The room temperature is around 25

    It's not particularly hot. This laptop does not have a good cooling system while the hardware is rather powerful, so don't expect really low temps.
    Anyway - this is nothing to worry about. You should pay attention to max temps when you are gaming just to be sure it's all manageable but what the screenshot above shows - while not good - it's acceptable.

    I have the same laptop and it looks fine to me.

    I reach 80's and sometimes 90's when gaming or stress-testing.
