Not normal laptop temps

[On our way to beat dio]

My laptop, the ASUS Tuf Fx504 has insanely high temps that shouldnt even be safe anymore. Got to 80 on cpu and gpu on just playing valorant for 5 mins and never went down below 80. On one point even got to 91 and the fans even on full speed and still got to these temps. What do i do to reduce the temps?

Sounds about typical for a "gaming" laptop. What you can do is clean it and make sure there's enough airflow (raise it up), but that's about it.

First of all, try to check if it's the normal thing among all users of this laptop. If it's then it's just laptop's "feature".

 

Do you have any kind of background processes (programs, utilities additional malware from Asus...), which uses your CPU/GPU while you're playing games? If not, then you don't need to reinstall OS.

 

Did you or the technician ever open the laptop for cleaning and replacing thermal components? If not, start from this and then check the temperatures again. Also, this may not help a lot, but most of the laptops have very thin stands. so if your laptop takes cold air from its back side, then either put it on the laptop stand or just add erasers under the stands (you can cut them with utility knife to get the height, which you are comfortable with)

 

If the problem still persists, try to look for solutions from other users/modders of this laptop and maybe you can find some sort of solution.

I think its maybe because of the dust filling up inside the laptop, i never actually close the laptop and just always have it up

Clean, undervolt, re-paste, cooling pad. That's about it

Well, here's the source of the problem.

 

Every electronics should be either opened and cleaned or blowed with air by leaf blower (anti-static ones) or air blow guns at least once a year. Otherwise, you can end up like me when I didn't clean my Toshiba Qosmio laptop for 3-4 years, and it resulted in half fried CPU. Funny thing is, it still worked with one of the two fried die, and games even run smoothly, just a tad slower than usual.

As Dudis already mentioned, clean, re-paste/replace thermal pad if it has any, maybe even reinstall OS just to make sure the HDD/SSD is clean too, undervolt if the BIOS has this option, and put your laptop a little higher than usual with cooling pad/laptop stand/erasers.

Best if done everything at once. Your Laptop @On our way to beat dio will say thank you 3 times

Those are pretty normal temperatures while gaming on a laptop.
