Title: MSI Prestige 15 Core i7 is really fast, but expect high Core temperatures

As the first 15.6-inch MSI laptop with an Intel Core i7-10710U CPU, the Prestige 15 has some big shoes to fill. Performance and clock rate sustainability are good at the cost of high core temperatures stabilizing at ~95 C when under stressful processing loads.

i also can't reproduce those results- my prestige 15 tops out at 4.0GHz before throttling.

Are you running those tests in sport mode? That runs the CPU at a higher wattage giving you higher temps of course. Looking at your HWinfo it looks like you are since the current package wattage is at 40W.

A Youtube reviewer got good results by running in sport mode and undervolting a little. The extra power and thermal headroom allowed the CPU to run even better.

I think the title sounds a little bit too pessimistic. In my opinion it's better more hot than cold. It's better that the bios pushes the cpu to the thermal limit to get as much computational power as possible.
