    There is no chance to damage the CPU and GPU because of high temperature, but it increases the amount of wear on the components by a bit.

    I personally wouldn't want my CPU to go above 85C average and the GPU above 82-83C. You can reduce the CPU temps by undervolting it and using a cooling pad even if it doesn't have fans.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.

    Try undervolting with throttlestop.
    It works wonders.
