Hi, i am thinking about getting a gaming laptop with a budget of $2500 but there is one unsettling thing about a gaming laptop, wherever i check the thermals of one on the internet they are always high (most of the time above 90C°) which is a concerning thing over time. I mean how much life should i expect from mine, should i apply thermal paste or even liquid metal, get a cooling pad, undervolt, there is many things to consider. If anybody have some experience or idea about these things i will be happy to have some info about what i want to get (currently i have my eyes on https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07Y2CHJR6/ref=ox_sc_act_image_9?smid=A37874AY7SX62V&psc=1)

Get it from HIDevolution. I've been buying laptops from them for the past 5 years and always choose their thermal upgrade "Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut + Fuipoly Extreme Thermal Pads" and never had an issue in any laptop which included MSI GT73VR Titan Pro, MSI GT75 Titan 8RG, Alienware Area-51m, Dell XPS 15, and Alienware m15

 

Also their customer service and tech support are way better than the standard tech support of OEMs and you get lifetime tech support for free by the way.

 

See the laptop that you want here and you can select that thermal upgrade in the laptop customization screen: https://www.hidevolution.com

If you buy a service, then they will cover any damage within warranty. But they are use to make these upgrades and nothing will happen. On the other hand liquid metal dosen't seeps out, only a spill will result in fried components.
