Did I fry my laptop!?

But you're using Afterburner for temperatures right? If there's only 1 CPU temperature value it's not the actual core temperature reported by the CPU. The latter being what the thermal throttling mechanisms follow. What you're reading is typically an averaged out value, but temperature difference between cores can be big especially when the thermal paste is not in good condition.

Being a laptop doesnt help either, not all behaviours follow factory settings.

Alao note that most GPUs boost a lot less at 90C than say, 80C. It's not thermal throttling since it's still above base clock, but you lose a lot of performance nonetheless.

So I was playing my favorite game farming simulator 22 with my asus fx505dd laptop with some friends and my laptop gets pretty hot but it's usually fine. I never have looked at my temps too much other then task manager. So the other day I found out that msi afterburner has a monitor, so I turned it on. So I was playing with my friends and my cpu was at about 90c and my cpu van take 105c. But then there was my gpu.....90c also. I have played this for a year the same way and looked up stuff online that said it would be ok like just ok. So when I could I would get off the game to let it cool and get back on. But today I tried to play farming simulator 22 and it kept freezing. I play with... some mods (like around 80 to 100 or so) on medium graphics, which I have also played on high when I didn't have as many mods ( more like 50 or less). I really hope I didn't fry anything and I have been thinking a about getting new thermal paste. So did I fry anything or is it just a coincidence and my game is being funky?

It's just thermal throttling heavy enough to be noticed. Not fry.

Does it freeze in other games? How about without any mods?

Haven't played anything else yet but will try a couple other games and without mods.

Well xbox is being stupid so I cant play half my games but it does fine without mods. The temps are lower though. Tried minecraft with some light shadders and mods that I can usually do fine and I couldn't tell if it had a little performance drop or not but did fine, never crashed or anything. I'm not shure now what to do.

Ok. I think I am going to get new thermal paste and I'll turn on all the cores temps and anything else I think I should.

exactly how can I show the temps of all the cores and stuff?

Use HWinfo64, it has its own start menu, choose to start in sensor mode.
