    im thinking of buying the new pav 15 with 8750h and 1060 3gb, so i started digging information about it and i found that the laptop has the same cooling as the omen 15 (witch runs extremely hot) but with smaller wholes for breading, but there's not a single t° review, so my request is can someone with the 2018 do terminal review with and without undervolting the cpu and also i know that the omen had bios update that dropped the t° by about 10C°, does the pavilion has any bios updates?

    Try to turn off turboboost by setting your maximum processor state down to 99% and Undervolt your CPU with Intel XTU.

    If its still overheating then send it back to HP.
