x40 Beast - cooling issues

[Thenewb]

hey guys i seem to be having issues with the cooling on my x40, I have the watercool kit for it and when thats all setup things seem fine. When im not using it my cpu temp seems to go sky high, even when I have the fans on max. There is no obstruction to the air flow vents and I even have the laptop slightly tilted to allow air underneath, With a game open on the main windown my cpu usage was at 20% but the cpu temp was 94 degrees C, surely something is wrong?

Hi @Thenewb ,

I´m not sure if both of them do exactly have the same ERAZER Beast machine, but maybe @Mrdanky or @Odarnok can share their thoughts one this one. The discussed water cooling solutions in this thread

Can you also tell me, if you already updated your Bios & EC upt to V N1.23MED08_EC_1.14.00_20230801?

Otherwise you can download it on our service webpage

Im having to use XMG's bios version N.1.23A12 I do have the watercooling kit from XMG because Medion dont sell the kit for the UK market 😞

I have the same issue. Idle, the CPU go up to 94 degrees. When playing, go down. 

Maybe its a throttle
