Hello guys. 

 

Yesterday , we got a Asus Laptop Asus Republic Of Gamers GL553VW i5 7300HQ , GTX 1050 .

When tested with gaming performance, (and i don't really care about FPS ) , the temp.. were too hot.. i am talking 80-85 .. 

For now i tested only few games.. Heroes of Magic 7 . on medium settings. 1366*768 resolution  temp - 80-85 .. 

And heroes Of the storm , 75-80 degree .

 

I know that we located in country  with hot weather. But i think this is too much . 

Also, same games , when was playing on Battery, the temps were pretty good. 50~65 ...

No need to explain why low temp on battery , but i would like to hear more specific explanation for high  temp when connected via  DC. 

Also, what can be does to lower this Temp madness ..

 

And please don't tell me to use cooling surface. as it helps a little .. , i want to have temps on DC same as  , when running on battery. 

 

Even if i will have to some how lower the voltage ..

 

Thanks ... 

 

 

 

 

 

Those temperatures are standard for a laptop.

The higher temp when plugged in is due to the laptop changing its power settings. When on battery it will restrict the CPU and GPU to optimise battery life. When plugged into power it will have the opportunity to perform at 100% which it does leading to higher power draw and higher temps.

To lower the temps change the windows and/or Nvidia power settings so CPU and GPU will not run at 100%. Though this will lead to the same or slightly better performance as you would have on the battery.

This ^ Those temps on a laptop are completely normal as these components get very hot and there is very little airflow in a laptop chassis so it just becomes a molten lump.

if you want to lower temperatures by a bit then install Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and lower voltages.

You have to options:

1) You can replace the thermal paste with something better.  However, keep in mind that taking a laptop apart is a lot easier than putting it back together.  As a computer technician, I can tell you it's a lot of work and easy to mess up.  The screws are tiny and easy to lose, and there are lots of steps involved so it's easy to get confused.  If you do try it, I recommend finding a disassembly guide for your model on Youtube.

2) You can buy a cooling pad.  This is the easiest and most effective option.  They can take 10 degrees or more off your laptop.  They're powered via USB so you don't have to plug anything in.  However, it also means carrying something else around with you.

The cooling system on that laptop is superior to that on the Asus. Yours is thicker and will have better ventilation and heat dissipation

Thanks mate for the suggestion . I am totally aware about all of it. Also, i change the paste in the past for my other laptops. But for this one i don't see the necessity  . as its a new laptop . And right now i just checking if this temps are actually normal or not, and if they are , what options do i have .

The thermal paste included often isn't that good.  Changing it will probably only affect it a couple degrees though.

 

People are right though, the temperatures are normal.  If they reach 90, you'll start getting thermal throttling and your game performance will take a huge hit.  If that happens, I strongly recommend a cooling pad.

 

Lowering your voltage may or may not work.  It could shave off a degree or two, but it could also just cause your laptop to crash.

I just made a google search and you can not do much because it seems to be related to this model because other people have this as well (up to 90°C).

try putting in -1.00 volts first, i have mine set to -1.6v on my HP Omen 15 but mine is a 7700HQ so it might differ between the 7300HQ

Those temperatures are standard for a laptop.

The higher temp when plugged in is due to the laptop changing its power settings. When on battery it will restrict the CPU and GPU to optimise battery life. When plugged into power it will have the opportunity to perform at 100% which it does leading to higher power draw and higher temps.

To lower the temps change the windows and/or Nvidia power settings so CPU and GPU will not run at 100%. Though this will lead to the same or slightly better performance as you would have on the battery.

Hey mate. Wanted to say Thx, i didn't knew about this option , and it helped . My uncle don't need the CPU and GPU on max when playing, so it all good.
