Hello, I am owner of a Acer Nitro 5 AN515-44-R2TL
I have it almost year from now, but since 3-4 months I've start having troubles with FPS in almost every single game.
For example while I am playing League Of Legends, CS:GO or Valorant, the FPS drop to 5-12.
It happens on different periods for 5-15 seconds the degrees of proccessor is always over 80 C.
I've tried to set maximum processor to 99% but when I did this, the fps drop drastically from normal 120 to 50-70.
Any suggestions how to fix it.
It is still in warranty one more year.

After Thermal Paste Changes the TEMPS drop with more 15 C, total drop of temps is around 25 C
I've do the cleaing of the fans + radiator + chaning thermal paste with MX-5.
After 2-3 days I will post additional comment for the current state of temperatures and FPS Drops rate.
