Are your tasks CPU-intensive though?

My laptop idles at less than 20°C above ambient, so usually in the high 40s, but the fans already speed up when it reaches 60°C - at 37°C I have just a few degrees of wiggle room until inevitably it starts cooling more aggressively.

Yes, I used to do a lot of rendering on the CPU. Fortunately GPU rendering is better now.
