My HP All-In-One 20-c081nt has the processor Intel Core i3-6100U, which is supposed to not run hotter than 100C. On Windows if 100C is reached, the screen will fade out and PC will immediately shutdown. A warning will be shown at next boot. On Linux, seen in the video, the PC will simply keep running as if nothing has happened and show the thermal shutdown warning after a graceful reboot.

      We use HP laptops at work, feels like a huge step down from the Dell machines we used at my old job.

      BTW: I absolutely agree with your nickname.

      Raspberry is the best berry. I even have some distilled alcohol msde from Raspberries, gives an amazing raspberry aftertaste when mixed with sprite

    Super lazy on HP to design such protection to be dependent on the OS. A good realtime priority set of threads could probably keep it running hot for longer by blocking the protection program.

    That protection should be part of the system firmware.

      It used to be part of the CPU itself. Intels would throttle themselves down when reaching critical temperatures. Is that no longer the case?
