My Dell Inspiron 5584 has been overheating lately. Even after changing thermal paste, the laptop stays hot. During games, temperatures reach around 50-75°C, and in CS:GO FPS drops are happening, which is really frustrating. Please help!

Sharing an SKU with your laptop to check its specifications.
Discussing the factory or assembly line thermal paste you used and whether you checked the cooling fins or venting for dust.
Regarding your laptop, if it has an 8th Gen Intel processor, consider undervolting with ThrottleStop—though it’s advisable to skip this if you’re not comfortable with such tools.
Noting that an MX130 chipset suggests a professional build, possibly suited for photography or students needing a lightweight GPU.

The laptop features 8 gb DDR4 RAM, an Intel Core i5 8265U processor, the Nvidia Force MX130 graphics card, and runs on Windows 11. The fins have been cleaned, and a Deep Cool Z5 thermal paste has been applied.
