hey i just brought 

HP Laptop - 15s-eq0024au

when i use my laptop for normal thing like browsing watching video with charger pluged in cpu temp get pretty high like 70-75 c is it normal to get that high when using laptop with charger plug in?? i have windows home 

it has 

AMD Ryzen™ 5 3500U with Radeon™ Vega 8 Graphics (2.1 GHz base clock, up to 3.7 GHz max boost clock, 6 MB cache, 4 cores)

8 GB DDR4-2400 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB)
512 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD
3-cell, 41 Wh Li-ion

70-75C is fine. Won't damage your CPU at least.

basically amd cpu produce much heat then intel's

this is normal for HP laptops as their cooling solution isn't very good but you can buy a laptop cooling pad that plugs in via USB that will help cool it better I have used these myself and found they work great.

for this one it only have 2 usb A port and a type-c and no rj-45 (sad) so im thinking to get a adapter like type-c to rj-45 and usb type A 3.0

The temperatures are a bit high. You should check what processors are running and what your CPU runs at % wise and then check to see what is making it use more power.

 

And remember Chrome like to have multiple processors running

It's only high if I use it when charger plugged in else it's under 60c

Safe temps are up to I would say 85-90c over that your cpu will throttle. 
But just for normal web browsing and in general not heavy tasked application the temps are quite high.

No, its not supposed to hit 70+ degree only from watching youtube. 

 

My asus laptop also experience 75-80 C just from simple youtube streaming and 92 C from playing old mmorpg game. I tried to open the bottom panel and check thats virtually no direct ventilation hole under for fan intake, i checked the direction of air intake for the fan and its indeed should be getting air from the bottom of the laptop.

 

What i did was drilling several holes and reattach the bottol panel without replacing the 2 years old termal paste. To my surprise the temp goes down to 52-58 ish for watching youtube and 76-80 C for playing the same old mmorpg. So clearly its the design flaw to cripple cheaper product so their mid range will looks better in term of performance.

 

If you would like to use laptop cooling pad, do take note if theres no sufficient ventilation hole directly under the cpu/gpu heatpipe, there wont be noticeable improvement.
