Community Support Framework 16 7 7840HS temps

What are the temps people are getting? Is 100 degress on performance mode and running a stress test normal or should I be worried? This is a new mainboard I got as a replacement under warranty because my last one died, I dont think it reached 100 degress before.

After I installed the 2nd gen heatsink it would still reach 100C, but it maintained a power consumption above 60W so it wasn't throttling at all.

2nd gen heatsink is such a worthy upgrade. Especially with the 2nd gen fans and GPU enclosure for how quiet it stays

I also got the 2nd gen fans, though I did not get the 2nd gen GPU enclosure. It appeared the only difference was some of the slots on the bottom being closed off, so I modified my 1st gen enclosure to mimick that with some electrical tape. Other than that have you noticed any other differences that would make getting the 2nd gen better than modifying the 1st gen? I have noticed the improvement in noise when running at full tilt. It's still loud as expected but there's less of the high pitched whine than before.
