Hi !

My miniPC Asrock 4x4 5600U shows CPU temperatures VERY hot at about 100°C, despite the fan being set to full blow all the time, and that only at 60-70% cpu load...

It's WAY hotter than my previous Intel NUC, is it normal? Maybe because of the plastic case? It's nearly unusable at this point. I even removed the pci-e wifi/bt card from it to help a little bit... Not sure what can I do at this point.

I'm even thinking to remove the casing and put it in a 3D printed case with like 120mm fans on it?

EDIT: computer is brand new, so no dust on the cooler / fan / vents... and normal use case.
