    The first thing you need to check is the thermal paste. Often, they dry and before you notice, you will have overheating issues. If this is a new machine, then send it back, if it is old, the odds of dry thermal pastes are high and I recommend changing it only if you are able. If not, contact Acer Support to do so. Cheers m8.

    Ok, I'll look into that and also just purchased a new laptop cooling stand as well so between the two options lets hope something works out.

    Most of the times, it is the Thermal Paste that has fixed it my friend. Other options may include a game or a 3D application that demands hardware usage from you. Other than that, I do not think it should overheat. Can you monitor the heat source?

    Yes I can. The max values would most likely be from gaming for a little bit earlier in the day game as ARK Survival had it on max settings for a few and then turned it down due to lagging which was due to overheating is my guess.

    And also let me clarify overheat in my opinion here. The laptop hasnt shut down or anything like that in a preservation mode. It has just been lagging on games that in my opinion should be more that capable of handling without any lagging and has felt a bit warmer than normal.
