I recently formatted an HP G62 Laptop and installed all drivers from the HP site that should be installed for this model.
But i noticed a very strange behavior, using Coretemp, the temp is always above 50 (on idle) and reaches 70 very quickly sometimes (Critical is 90)
If i open youtube or skype alone, i can get temperatures as high as 83.
Normally it was around 32 (on idle) and reaches 70 when i open games but not youtube....
I have a i3 processor and AMD graphics so i am wondering if somehow it's a graphics card issue (since i3 has integrated graphics as far as i know)
Device manager shows only AMD graphics card tho, not sure if i3 graphics should appear here too.
Any ideas what i might have forgotten to do after the format ?
