Interesting. The important part to me is this:
The outside of the Switch is definitely exhausting more heat, which could suggest more heat is being taken away from the SOC and consequently cooling it down.
Dumb hypothesizes from a non-expert:
- You have cleaned dust during your modifications, making a better air Flow (more heat out, better internal thermal, better CPU performance).
- You have broken a thermal sensor and your switch is actually heating a lot while the sensor think it does not.
- Both ?
Most of my objects are actually dataclasses.
