Describe the issue:
As per title, I recently changed my thermal paste bc I thought the CPU temps were too big (up to 100 under load, floating around 90 usually, little did I know it was fine) and now im getting some crazy dumb temps, like 85-96 spikes just browsing the internet, under load it easily goes to even like 110 before limiting itself to 100. Gpu went from 66 to 80. Whats more, I noticed that on high load, my fans keep blowing out cold air, and iirc it used to be at least somewhat warm when playing games?
What have you tried already?:
Well the problem began after one of my thermal paste swaps. Since then I tried replacing the paste a few times again but to no result. I was using grizzly aeronaut (missclicked buying kryonaut lol). I dont put too much paste to make it look like a smore (this time I might have put too little bc I was running low), take a full minute/2 to try and evenly spread it on the units, and while the main gpu/cpu processors I always clean 100%, ngl that there are small bits of leftover paste between the tiny ones around the main units (I tried cleaning them as much as I could). Never changed thermal pads but they look good imo. Obv fans arent dusty. I inspected the heatsink and dont see it being bent anywhere or have any damage whatsoever. I always try to be very delicate with it, never fucking up the weight balance, but Im really out of options as to what might be going on here and I start to think I might mess something up, and its not conducting heat properly 
In case the paste needed more time to settle down I tried waiting a day before doing anything intensive and still.
Ill be giving it on warranty either way bc my lcd is borked too. so I suppose I could tell them to check out the cooling system too and maybe get it replaced. Still, I'm curious if anyone maybe has any clues or has had a similar problem.
When did it start producing the issue:
Idk like a week ago, I think I noticed it on friday, but at least then i was able to play games without severe fps drops when the temps got to the mentioned 110 lol
Did you install new drivers or software?:
I didnt install anything new, especially nothing that could stealthy mine bitcoin 💀
Can you provide images/videos to show us the issue:
