90+ degrees when playing games

[dusty trench]

is this normal? is it because of the game im playing? if it matters im not at home and on vacation where the weather is a lot warmer then back at home i never noticed it going to 90s when playing games

[dusty trench]

i restarted my laptop and it has high temps even though nothing is going on

still high temps

[strong igloo]

What laptop u have which cpu?

[dusty trench]

msi gp 66

[strong igloo]

I think u should consider to repaste it.

@dusty trench speccy is awfully unreliable so I’d use something such as hwinfo64 instead

and 92c is indeed normal

[dusty trench]

wont it damage my cpu

i noticed some stuttering for like 1 second

[lucid jolt]

no, laptop CPUs are designed to handle 95c

[dusty trench]

@lucid joltwho says speccy is bad

[lucid jolt]

me and everyone that knows about monitoring softwares

it still says every GPU with 4gb of vram or more has only 4gb of vram

it hasn’t been updated in god knows how long

[dusty trench]

the version im using is out of date

[lucid jolt]

Speccy is out of date

[dusty trench]

i downloaded hwinfo64

and it shows the same as speccy

[lucid jolt]

thats good

it differs between cpus

[dusty trench]

but idk why my temps are so high now

[dusty trench]

i have another question is it ok to restart or turn off the laptop while the fans are on

or should i wait for them to turn off

[lucid jolt]

Yes

[velvet sky]

max mine reach is 86 and with max fans it comes down to 78-79 btw i'm also using msi vector gp66

i'm using a basic cooling pad

[dusty trench]

IM having the same temperatures as before

and im noticing fps drops

i cleaned the back of my laptop too and it was dusty

i guess ill have to unscrew it and clean the vents

[dusty trench]

i have the lepord 66

[dusty trench]

and it was the same for me but then i took it with me on vacation and it started to act like this

[velvet sky]

it might be just because of temp difference between places

[dusty trench]

what fan speed do u guys recommmend

[dusty trench]

my room temperature is fine and ive used this laptop in cold rooms too

[velvet sky]

I use mine on default
When you change it to cooler boost it will automatically max it so there's nothing to change there

I have the same issue with my laptop, it's not uncommon either, I found a thread on LTT'S website that says he reapplied thermal paste, and it helped significantly
