Nitro AN517-52 overheating issues

Hi guys I have some issues with my new laptop hitting high temperatures while gaming.
I pretty much play only one game which is Total War Rome II. I guess the game is very demanding on the CPU as when having a Performance plan in Nitrosense the CPU temperature hovers at 85-92 C almost constantly. The laptop is being throttled seems like every 30 seconds due to hitting 92 C degrees.
I can play this game for a few hours straight and I feel like I'm slowly frying the laptop up.

The only workaround I found is to go with a balanced power plan which keeps me at around 85 C degrees.
I could probably also try to turn off Turbo boost? Not sure which of those two options would give me lower performance drop. Anyone?
- I have a cooling pad.
- Laptop is only a few weeks old so reapplying thermal paste would most likely void my warranty.
- Tried undervolting but it seems my i7-10750H has undervolting blocked as the settings wouldn't stick at all.
Anything else I can try?

Ive done most things to manage the heat with my i7 10750H and the best was underclock to 3.6ghz.You gota get throttlestop to do it. i got 8-10 C off seriously as the cpu will be turbo boosting all the time without. I undervolted a bit but dont think it had a major difference.Heres my post i made re the underclock with uncle webb ( creator of throttle stop ) awnsering.also, i find a laptop cooler with high rpm (2200) 80mm fans right under the latpop fans works. you get 3 degreess off and it doesnt climb higher which is important.I did repaste and saw no difference in temps so i think its just the big cpu struggling to cool as it is a i7 in a laptop. so underclock...
Please Click Yes if Ive answered your question.Current: Custom Desktop Build (5800X, 16GB, 3070ti)Previous: Aspire 5 A515 44 R8RH(R5 4500u, 8GB, AMD Radeon Vega 6 iGPU)Previous: Nitro 5 AN515 55 (i7,16GB,1650ti)Thanks SilvaGi!1

Sweet, will play with the speed shift values when I get home and report back.SilvaGi said:Ive done most things to manage the heat with my i7 10750H and the best was underclock to 3.6ghz.You gota get throttlestop to do it. i got 8-10 C off seriously as the cpu will be turbo boosting all the time without.

Just the heads up . It works really well I got my temperature down by close to 15 C degrees. Thanks a lot.
Is 3,6 GHz optimal performance/heating wise? How was your heating on 4 Ghz?0
