Alienware 16X Aurora overheat

The 16X is just a new Dell G16 with an Alienware logo slapped on it, so it's not surprising to see this. But I guess it's "normal" as long as it's not crashing. Either way I wouldn't be happy with such a thermal impact from such minimal usage.

Is the Alienware 16X Aurora worth buying right now? Is it good?

Do you think the fan noise on this laptop is loud? And have they improved how fast the Alienware Control software runs? I watched Jarrod's review of the 16X Aurora and he mentioned that the software runs a lot slower compared to other brands' built-in apps.

Alienware 16/18 Area-51 Gaming Laptop vs 16X Aurora – Is the Area-51 Worth the Extra $$?

Cheers for the fast and detailed reply, although some of it goes over my head! Forgive me for a few further questions. Looking at the area 51 16" and 18" options and the Aurora 16x options - only the most expensive option of the 16 and 18 inch Area 51 configurations have Gen5 SSD. Presumably Gen 5 S
