When I play some high end games like Mass effect Andromeda ,Rainbow six siege my laptop getting heat so much.Also there is a huge FPS drop while I'm in game.I attched a screenshot of nitro sense application.It shows me some gaps/drops between heat & usage graph.I need to know this temperatures are ok or not ? & what is the cause to above mentioned FPS drop?

There is no advantage after turn on coolboost while maximum fan speeds.Because maximum fan speed is 6122 RPM.

@TImax How is the performance if you set it on "balanced" instead of "high performance"? That could help lower your temps a bit.

The problem here is that those temperatures aren't excessive in fact they are well within tolerance so something else is going on here.

Make sure you do all below and always game on 100% battery BEFORE gaming and KEEP plugged in while gaming, in Nitrosense make sure High performance is selected under "AC" tab

Please click YES if I have answered your question, thankyou

1. Download and install the latest Nvidia drivers from here and do not install GEforce experience, instead check the link every month for updated drivers
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx. Geforce Experience causes problems for some people

2. Go to the Nvidia control center and under manage 3d settings/Preferred Graphics processor set to your Nvidia GPU then under the Program Settings tab select the programs and games that you want to run on the Nvidia GPU. Do the same under the PhysX Configuration tab

3. Make sure Windows is set to high performance and you game with your battery charged to 100% BEFORE gaming and KEEP plugged in while gaming
Please click YES if I have answered your question, thank you

No performance changes after switch to balanced mode.

Once again you do NOT have a heat problem. Are these two games online games? If they are it probably has nothing to do with your laptop. Online games suffer from FPS drop and stuttering due to the games servers and bottlenecking etc.

@andylb Yes of course.Specially Rainbow Six siege.So 98'c is normal temperature?

No 98 deg is not normal but nowhere above did you post a screenshot of 98 deg.

Please take a look at Nitrosense temperature graph.Max cpu temp = 98'c,Max gpu temp = 94'c.
