    Maybe because Linux is known for poorer power and fan control. Imagine having issues before dust has even accumulated.

      Is that so? Funny, the entire Internet must’ve missed that. Come, teach the whole world your infallible knowledge of Linux’s problems.

        The issue is more common in laptops and Valve’s new hardware uses a laptop mobo.
