With the CPU fully taxed in Cinebench, it could sustain just shy of 90 degree celsius without the fans on full blast, while in a gaming scenario, the CPU will generally hover around the mid 60s while the GPU is even lower in the mid 50s.

Thermals on the other hand are fantastic and well under control.

With all that said, not understandable given the resolution and GPU. While CS:GO and Valorant are still plenty enjoyable, the same can’t be said for Apex Legends where the frame rate drops below 60 and even Genshin Impact, where there would be sudden spikes and drops below 60 if there’s too much happening on screen. At 1080p, performance was fantastic with games like CS:GO and Valorant, easily pumping out more than 100 frames per second, making full use of that 120Hz display, Where it’ll fall short is if you game at the native resolution. Microsofts Surface Laptop 5 follows up 2021’s Laptop 4, bringing Intel’s 12th Generation Alder Lake processors to the same sleek.
