I own both a desktop and a laptop that match each other in specifications. My desktop features an i5-6500, GTX1050 Ti, MSI H110M grenade, 8GB RAM at 2133MHz, and a Corsair vs450 PSU. It runs games such as Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Watchdogs 2. On the other hand, my laptop has an i5-8300H, GTX1050 (4GB), and 16GB RAM at 2400MHz. I experience low frame rates in games like Assassin's Creed Odyssey at 60fps due to high frame times of 20-25ms. When using MSI Afterburner for stats, the system shows a full-core turboburst up to 100MHz and stays at 95-100% usage. Power consumption remains between 20-25W despite a 65W TDP chip. Temperatures stay very low, rarely exceeding 55°C regardless of load. The problem shifts to my laptop, which overheats rapidly—reaching 95-98°C on the CPU and GPU hovering near 85°C under heavy load. The CPU frequently draws over 30W and drops to around 3.6-3.7GHz even at such high temperatures. I have reduced the voltage by -0.15V with Intel XTU, but it seems ineffective. I've also swapped thermal paste, used a laptop cooler pad with fans, yet no improvement appears. Are there any solutions to enhance the desktop's performance or help the laptop run cooler?
