So the HP is doing stupid things here. It's too aggressive on watt controlling. The temperature is ok, I won't say good since it's far, far from the m1pro MacBook 16, but much better than zephyrus m16 which has 12900H and 3070ti for $870.
I have both of the same hp envy and they perform exactly the same. The 4060 has timespy 8500 and 9000 on two pc. It's in 3060's territory and overclocking, sadly won't do anything since it's power limited. Overclocking the rtx4060 to about +250 on core and +1250 on vram gave me 10k on timespy for one and 8k, which is even less on timespy for the other one.

What made me return it is the lack of USB-C charging while on. So stupid it can only do it while off and sometimes when sleeping. Also be careful removing bottom plate for upgrades, it has dual NVME slots but getting the panel off is very tricky and very easy to slightly bend it a tiny bit out of shape causing a small permanent gap.

Windows 11 does not have these issues.

I'm a software engineer and have had this beast for about a week and change. It is AMAZING and you can even disable the GPU and the integrated graphics on the i9 can push 2x 1440p@165Hz screens and the built-in one at 120Hz simultaneously like that without flinching.
This thing TANKS and is so resilient that now instead of deploying code to our testing server, I paid for a static IP and have everyone in our office in another state just routing to my laptop to test the code I'm working on.
Absolutely sick laptop... but priced at < $1400.... laptop of the year
On top of all that, it games like a champion as long as you keep all of the intakes and outtakes unblocked
Only cons I've hit:
Power adapter connector doesn't snap into place, so if you move the laptop a little bit it can become slightly loose, super annoying and hoping it's just my unit
Keyboard is decent, but not fantastic. I think some people will like it more than I do. The complaints about the backlight color and key marker color are wrong though, it looks nice
The ports mostly being on the right side is asinine, but only for *this* amaze of an overall laptop would I overlook that, so I do

Or, is it possible you got a defective unit?
