    I recently purchased HP Envy 15 Touch smart. I realized that when keep the laptop on the bed or pillow, It gets terrible hot. Today I measured the temperature which reached 82 degrees on the bed. Is my CPU throtteling?
    Is it normal for a laptop, where CPU gets that hot? I hope my CPU didn't start degrading because of this temperature

    Absolutely normal, being on a blanket, I.E. the bed. Does not allow proper heat dissipation. By the way the CPU throttles at around 90C ad thermal shutdown is 105C.
