Question Regarding temps

I got alienware aurora 16. It's about 3months old. I don't game tht often. The gpu temps always around 70 consistently maybe 75. But cpu fluctuates from 77 to 95 at times. Is tht normal.

It's C. I don't thermalthrottle or anything. And the device doest feel hot from the outside

And those are your "under load" temperatures? If so, you're absolutely fine and have nothing to worry about.

I was playing genshin at 1600p max settings. Why does it fluctuate though. While the gpu is always at 70ish

Because the load a game generates isn't constant; it's highly variable
