I installed something to monitor the temperatures, and indeed my cpu is hovering between 90 and 100 degrees Celsius. Is there anything i can do about that? Maybe applying some fresh thermal paste?
Settings were the first thing I lowered to see if it had an impact, as it didnt make a difference i doubted that was the culprit.
A lot of gaming laptops have the ability to boost the fans. Might sound like an airplane taking off, but that should help regulate the temperature better. Headphones help.
A quick Google search tells me that there's an app called LegionFanControl that might help.
I could give that a try. But I also noticed that the bottom vent-holes were clogged up with dust, so i blew that out but i haven't played after that. Also put it on a laptop stand for better airflow. I really appreciate all the help, thanks.
Have fun!
