Same issue with my Lenovo dock with my Thinkpad X260. For me the issue isn't as annoying when my i5 goes to 99C thermals when doing basic crap. This is why I'm heavily considering going M1 Apple.
@Cryptowolf I don't use audio plugins. ATM plan is to use Roon for most of my music and another music program (perhaps JRiver) to handle my UPnP needs. What audio plugins don't work ATM? I'll still have my Thinkpad for Windows x64 needs and I could use Remote Access from a Mac to Windows when I need it.
Yeah it's my work laptop so I don't have a choice in the matter. Other than that though it seems to work great, doesn't get hot or loud, even with my 50 tabs and various work stuff open
@YMO if you’re ballsy change the thermal paste with some liquid metal or some other good paste. Either way stock paste is crap and probably dried out being the cause of your problems.
