hi guyz, ive ran into a very weird situation here.
i own a
2020 helios 300 variant. Here are the specs:
CPU: Core i5 10300h GPU: GTX 1650ti 4 gbRam: 8 gb ddr4hdd: 1 tb 7200 rpmssd: 240 gb Screen: 144 hzProblem:
So, i purchased a helios 300 from
flipkart.in in October 2020 India. I played csgo and valorant on the medium and high settings on the
first day and i got satisfactory frames, i.e around 100-130
Since the second day, i faced a very unusual problem, i.e when playing any game,
Cpu temps went upto
96 degrees C and frames were falling down from
120 to
30 constantly as if stuttering always.
I researched a little and found a youtube video telling me to create a new battery profile and set
minimum and
maximum cpu state to
90 %.
I did the same and now on any game, ithe cpu and gpu stayed below 62 degrees C, which was enough to my satisfaction.
But then i noticed that this caused my frames to drop a lot, like...i used to get a maximum of 40-43 fps in any game even on the lowest settings. E.g GTA V online .
So i decided to switch back to the old stock "Acer" battery profile, where the maximum cpu state was 100%.
On default battery profiles, i get very high temps but great frames, and on custom battery profile, i get low temps, but very bad frames.
Things i tired: 1. undervolting - my CPU doesn't support undervolting so that is out of option.
2. turbo mode - Fans ran on high rpms but temps were still high and frames were the same (less).
3. Repasting- I could do that, but ive heard that repasting causes void in warranty.
4. Elevation- ive always kept laptop elevated and gave neough room to breathe freely.
5. Dust- it is a new laptop, and there is hardly any dust in it.
Plz help me, as i want to get what i paid for....:/
P.S ; I want to keep temps down because, i've read that high temps can cause damage to the internal components.
