Csgo shows 140 fps in benchmarks and I'm having 15. My 3gen old laptop runs it better than a 11gen 1165 i7? And I don't think it's a budget laptop, what can be better? If it's a Corolla I expect that runs at 60km constant. Like my old Cadillac, but it's not working. Overheat everywhere. 

That game and video editing are both demanding applications - this is decidedly not a high performance system;  it's a budget system.

You're going to have to compromise on your performance needs and reduce the processor speed and game settings.  Your expectations of a budget system need to be tempered in the same way as your driving needs would be -- this is a Corolla, not a Supra.

That's partly the result of running a demanding game on a budget system - you're asking a $1K budget system to do the work of a $2500+ gaming notebook.

If you look at the system recommendations for that game, and compare them to the hardware and design of your purchase, you'll see.

Even the G-series Inspirons are going to be marginal for running this game (or video editing).  The XPS 15 would be entry-level for these applications.

Welcome to the Dell Community @Snmedina91 

Have you made sure your BIOS and Chipset drivers are up to date???

What SSD do you have installed???

Hi @Snmedina91 I just bought an Inspiron 5406 too and I've got the exact same problem as you. Have you found a solution?

I didn't even have to play or use photo editors for the PC to overheat: I just ran an antivirus scan for 10 minutes and all the cores were constantly above 80°C (176°F). That is just not normal at all. Even now, as I'm just writing this on browser, with nothing else running, the CPU temperature is above 135°F. 

I've recently updated BIOS and Firmware ("thanks" to built-in Dell Update), is it possible that the problem is in the updates?

I cannot believe that a 10 days old, definetely not cheap system (more than 1000€ here in Europe), with such specs can have such a problem. 

I also experienced overheating issue in my one day old laptop. I just solved one more issue of driver update which lead to Intel DPST go crazy and start flickering screen right after removing charger from from the laptop. https://github.com/orev/dpst-control this dude solved the issue of screen flickering. his instructions were enough. about overheating, I am also feeling sad. I don't know what the heck got into me buying this expensive piece of machinery. I only wanted to buy a 2 in 1 so that I could make notes in my class. moreover they dont even have demo models to check the quality of product. what do I do now? is there any way of getting my money back!!

Not solved. Working in the refound of the laptop. Sorry for the delay in the answer. Is your laptop processor running at 2.8Ghz or 1.69Ghz as mine when turbo boost is not activated? Thanks
