Gpu & cpu overheating

hearny90 — Sun, 13 Dec 2020 02:09:55 GMT

Hi guys I'm at ends needs with this laptop now, I bit the Bullet and purchased another mic a usb one rather than aux and decided not to send it back,

However my next problem is not great, lowest setting on cod warzone I am seeing temperatures of 95oC plus on both cpu and gpu now, and before it does overheat not even seeing 80fps, can someone help please I've never had gaming laptops or PCs I only purchased due to recently becoming seriously disabled in a crash and can no longer hold a controller so did not see the point in purchasing the xbox series x, and a gaming pc was not an option, but are £1200 laptops this bad or am I just unlucky

Thanks luke

Sorry for the essay

Intel I7 10750h, 16gb ram, rtx2060

Welcome to forum @hearny90

Overheating is the price a laptop pays for packing all that power into a small case. The airflow and cooling is way less efficient compared to a desktop.

A cooling pad might help (see the bottom of laptop where are the ventilation grills to match the cooling pad. Also lowering a bit the graphic details for games and strict control over FPS can help to prevent overheating. If we are talking about a shooters it's better medium details at 60 FPS than high details with occasional high FPS and stutter caused by overheating.

Overall, yes, laptops tend to overheat on heavy loaded games and that use to affect the gameplay.

If you can provide the MSN of your laptop might be some one here to provide more information.

Cheers

For Nvidia card low details without a frame count control it's just as bad as exaggerate high details. What happens is that the GPU is trying to get max fps (like >200) and by that gets bottleneck by overheat.

Set up a frame control to 60 fps (or even 45) then start adding details bit by bit until you get an average 75 Celsius on GPU/CPU.

In some cases details from game options eats more resources than post process reshade for the almost same result on image (or even better) quality.

Let us know who goes after setting the cap on FPS.

Cheers

I'm sorry but 45-60fps on this spec machine is ridiculous median should really advertise this , I could purchase a laptop with half this spec and still get the same results ,I must admit I am vey disappointed in median my friends ASUS rog same spec sits at 120fps comfortably with no issues.

You're right, I should keep this kind of suggestions to myself.

Hopefully someone else will have a better view about what can be done.

Mine went back for several repairs as the temperature killed the motherboard twice so I called the company I bought it off and under consumer rights received a full refund

Thanks for response. Do you think I’ll be able to Get a refund? I got mine 2 years ago and have struggled since day 1 trying to find a fix. Is it too late?

Probably not a refund now but if it's still in warrenty get them to re apply thermal paste and that should help a little bit
