    Chrome  browser is notorious for causing laptops to overheat. If you must use Chrome---If your ntiro is more than a year old----and if you frequently play games--- then the thermal paste between the heatsink and CPU/GPU should be replaced with ArcticMX4 and Kryonaut thermal paste.

    I completely moved away from Chrome - both from privacy concerns and from the fact that it is a resource hog. I moved over to Firefox and Brave browser, the latter is based off Chromium but light weight.

    If you still want to use Chrome, disable it from using hardware acceleration.
