My friend has a Acer Aspire V 15 Nitro Black Edition VN7-593G-74J4 that he uses to play games like divinity. It has a GTX 1060 so built in, so the performance is good. The problem is the temperatures, which 85°c according to MSI afterburner. It is hot enough to make touching is uncomfortable. We alread undervolted the CPU by 0.100V and now are looking into the GPU. Afterburner allowed us to lower the clocks of the GPU, but not to limit the power or voltage or set a max temp. How can we do it?

    On the laptop the power and temp settings are disabled, I can only change the clocks and overvolt it, not undervolt.

    Is there anything that needs to be enabled for this to work? I have already told him to do that and he said that the blocks werent movable, but I can totally see him messing up draggina this around.

    Other than that, is there any way to introduce a temp limit on those laptops?
