    Running on battery will severely limit laptop performance - noticeable little for smaller games n more for heavier ones. Games that peak resources are barely playable on battery.
    You can try setting processor performance at 99% when on power (in power settings) and reduce power a little. This will still raise temps but since turbo won't turn on, it would be comparatively cooler (when compared to CPU at 100%). Also shift power plan from windows 10 performance plan to BALANCED.
