Post Body

I just bought a GE76 Raider 11UE-046US and I have noticed even with no load the power supply is much warmer than my previous laptop. Today I loaded up Lost Ark and the power brick was hot to the touch. The power brick is made by Chicony Power Technology rated for 240 Watts that came with the laptop.
My old laptop was a Dell i7 7700HQ with a 1060 6gb and 180 watt power brick. That one never got hot like this and even was cool during low use.

Has anyone else experienced this with MSI laptops? I don't think the power supply should ever get so hot under use that you cant touch it for long so i am a little worried.
