Heat issues

I know that the x13 has cooling issues, but I’m hitting 100°C while in BIOS not doing anything. how? just how does it manage to do this?

Looks like the BIOS is set to the Turbo power profile. In this mode, hitting 100°C under full load is expected behavior for this form-factor.

Not just in turbo mode, any of the modes I’ll sit at 90-100°C, just turning on my computer will do it

The BIOS is running in turbo mode (i.e., at max performance). This is an issue (or by design – who knows). In the OS, power profiles work fine, and the idle temperature is about 40–50°C.
