CPU temperatures exceeding 198°F during laptop operation

Upgrading the cooling system could help. The current setup is already quite hot—temperatures range from 198°F to 203°F. Adjusting airflow by repositioning the case or adding a fan might make a difference. Check if the case has any vents or if you can open them for better circulation.

Folding requires a lot of effort, and these conditions are typical for a laptop. You might want to give it a good rest or clean it thoroughly.

You're asking about reapplying thermal paste again. It seems the surface isn't dusty, and using compressed air might be helpful right now.

We might be able to guess, but certainty remains elusive.

You can locate fans designed for mounting on laptops, which may aid in cooling. Since air cooling relies a lot on room temperature, I recommend keeping it in a climate-controlled space (unless you reside in colder regions or Australia). More adventurous methods include opening the laptop and swapping out the thermal paste for improved materials or even liquid metal. However, I would caution against those approaches.

I'm new to thermal paste. I intend to open the laptop for cleaning today. Appreciate the help!

It's right where I can see it clearly from above, which should make a difference. The dust accumulation is still an issue. I'll give it another shot.

Have you experimented with reducing volume? If not, give it a shot before turning on your computer.
