thermal throttling cpu because of gpu

headhunter26101

I have a Dell G7 7588 gtx 1060 model
I bought it for gaming but it keeps overheating, I searched online and have tried everything from downvolting,throttlestoop i even got the thermal paste reapplied but the laptop still hasnt stopped overheating and hence thermal throttling

The overheating only occurs while I game, when i stress test my cpu individually , it never overheats.
while i am gaming however  , even though the cpu is at 40% usage max, it starts to overheat , the gpu still stays cool at 78 degrees max. 
What do I do?

There is nothing you can do. its the poor thermal design from Dell thats at fault. Welcome to the laptop world of throttling.

the best you can do is maybe get a cooling fan stand which would barely improve your situation, or move to Antarctica
