I recently bought a gaming Laptop, ACER Nitro 5 AN515-55 with i5 10th gen CPU. The fact is when I game on this laptop, it suddenly starts heating up to 96 degree!!! And even sometimes it reaches at 97 degrees. OMG!! I'm really shocked and worried about my laptop. God why does this happens with me all the time?? I recently bought new gaming laptop because I %#@#@# up the previous one.

    Hi,
    Yes, it's normal for the temperatures to spike to 97°C but your system doesn't run at that temperature always,  if you are concerned, download and install HWmonitor or keep an eye on the temperatures in the Nitrosene App.

    Thanks For the response @brummyfan2,
    As u said, I have been watching the CPU activity in Nitro Sense while I'm gaming. The temperature desperately rises until it reaches 96, 94, 93 degrees somewhere around every time. It really messes up my mood while gaming.

    No problem, I would suggest you ignore it and don't let it annoy you, a short spike in temperature is not going to damage any components.

    the real problem is not the cpu is the gpu, I have the an515-54 and invenstigate everything of why those temps, because my laptop reaches 99 c, and I already repaste the laptop and undervolt the cpu etc, but after an intensive investigation and checking all the time the temps when I play and when I use the laptop I discover two things:

    1 When my laptop is been used normal my cpu doesnt pass the 60 c
    2.- when I benchmarl my cpu it doesn'tpass 75 or 80c

    But when I play games, the cpu spikes to 95c but it is because the gpu.

    I use throttlestop and the cpu is working fine but the gpu is the one that elevates the temps very high. The only solution I got was to undervolt the gpu but is not going to help too much because the way is make the design of the cooler system, in one system you have the cpu and gpu and when the gpu start to work inmediatly start to elevate the temps.

    Try to do the above things and you will see that the problem is not the cpu.

    so you can't solve it its the design ill just have to live with it overheating?
    or is there a way 2 fix it?
