Hello everyone, my Dell XPS 3000 USD model becomes a costly cooking pan when it goes to sleep. The problem appears to be with the S0 and S3 power settings not functioning properly. Looking up "Dell XPS overheating while asleep" online shows many similar experiences. Have anyone discovered a fix other than using hibernate, besides putting it to sleep? The BIOS is current, drivers are fresh, and my system specs are Dell XPS 17 9700 with 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, RTX 3060 Max-Q.
