so i was just idling and checked temps and my laptop usually runs at 55C even with a browser running but all of a sudden started running at 67-70C, didnt open any app and everything thats always been running is still running as usual. havent done anything different.

Could be a random windows update, some background process, etc. Many things can cause a CPU temp spike, good thing is that it's not high, 70c is completely fine temp.
