Can a laptop turn itself off if it overheats too much? or will it explode/burn its internal components?
My main concern is if the laptop “knows” that It’s overheated too much, to the point that keeping itself running & not shutting down is self-destructive or even fatal.
My laptop is a model from the 2010s, so I’m not sure if it has the technology to turn itself off.
If you are concerned about your cpu overheating, download and install hwinfo, open it up, while opening a new popup window appears, if your goal only to check temp, then select of the popup page sensors only… your cpu and hdd and gpu temp will be listed in there…
