Laptop overheating whenever using Photoshop

Thank you for the AI-generated post, new user!

If that is an ROG system. I'm surprised there isn't something like a GTX 3060 in there vs just onboard radeon?

Here are Adobe's requirements for reference: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/system-requirements.html

@D Fosse and @Lumigraphics  are correct. A good cleaning will help along with checking for driver updates. If you can, you should check to see if you can add another 8 gb stick of ram or replace with a 16gb stick. Those laptops are usually upgrade friendly.

I run phohtohsop on a samsung latop with built in grpahic and for light editing it does great but it does hit it's limits.

Honestly you need a computer with at least 16GB of RAM. Windows 11, Photoshop, 8GB... bad combo.

The first thing I would do is grab a vacuum cleaner to remove as much dust as possible from the air vents and inlets. Adequate cooling is not really possible in a laptop doing heavy work. It's just a lot of components crammed into an impossibly tight space. For this reason, components are usually throttled down considerably to avoid excessive heat buildup.

While Photoshop doesn't need an extremely powerful GPU, it does call on some very advanced functions. An integrated GPU is really underpowered for newer Photoshop versions. It will have to work pretty hard.

It could also be a problem in your GPU driver, so try to update and see if that helps. But I think accumulated dust is a more urgent problem.
