Hello, I'm not very experienced with computers, so I'm asking for advice from anyone who might know. My system is running low-stress games, but my CPU is throttling at power limits and getting very hot (97-98°C). I usually see a slight frame-rate drop, which isn't a big deal, but the heat is. I've lowered the voltage by 0.130 and matched my boost settings, but it hasn't helped much. (I'm not sure if this info will be useful, but I'll share it anyway): CPU Core IccMax --- 128.000 A Turbo Boost Power Max -- 45.00 W Any suggestions for managing the temperatures would be appreciated.

if the laptop has ventilation gaps these aid significantly https://www.amazon.com/Laptop-Cooling-Pa...s9dHJ1ZQ== but older models costing 10bucks are hard to locate
