Something in the graphics driver?
Probably.
What GPU does it have?
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK106GLM [Quadro
K2100M] (rev a1)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core
Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06)

Is the same
driver being used on Fedora and Ubuntu? (I'm reaching here).
Sorry, I do not have the information about what driver was used on
Ubuntu. The test was done by a colleague few days ago and they did use
the drivers that were available on stock installation of Ubuntu 18.10.
The GPU is Nvidia so it would be interesting to see if Ubuntu is using
the proprietary Nvidia driver while Fedora has the Nouveau driver. Try
"lsmod|grep -i nvidia". You could also install the Fedora Nvidia driver
from RPMfusion to see if it makes a difference.

I have been using the Nvidia drivers from RPMFusion from a week or so. Since then, generally, the laptop does not overheat. Occasionally, I have observed overheating.
