a month ago I bought a predator triton 300 laptop (the version that rtx2070 has) and it really is a fairly complete laptop, at the beginning I tried some games and I saw that it was better to customize the fan speed since at least in my case the automatic mode is not legit, even so a few days ago I decided to try a game (superliminal), first check the recommended requirements and knowing the specifications of this laptop I was going to run more than well, as it was a somewhat demanding game I put the fans to maximum (6000RPM) and I started playing and it was going quite well, 60 fps stable and no problem, the bad thing was that as soon as it had been like 10 minutes the CPU was at 80 and rising to 90 and that alarmed me a lot since despite having the fans at maximum, To avoid problems, remove the game and the temperature fell but the temperature rises to 90 and is not contained despite having the fans at maximum, on a stable wooden table and also use some pieces of wood to Support the laptop and make the air inlet have more distance between the table even so it reached 90 and it did not seem to stop, and that the laptop did not even seem to be giving all of itself, it is normal, it is an error in the ventilation or is it really something normal for a gamer laptop (its greatest limitation is the heat, so that much power if the temperature never let you use it all)

    Did you try undervolting?(if 10th gen processor or higher I think there are some issues with undervolting, in this case I am not sure how exactly to perform undervolting). If you have, then probably you should to take it to acer and have it repasted.

    no, do not try undervoltage, although it would probably be good to check how the thermal paste is doing since if something strange is done to me that it reaches 90 with all the ventilation at maximum

    Why not try undervolting? Well if you want to change the thermal paste, sure you can but undervolt does bring down temps by a lot. If its possible you should try it, it doesn't cause any damage, only a few BSODs you may get if you undervolt too much.
