Is it safe for my PC?

Hello, I have an Acer Aspire 7 A715 ( intel i5 7300HQ, GTX 1050) and when I run Nier, CPU go as high as 90 degrees celsius on certain cores(others are around 80-90) and GTX at 68-72 .

I know that i5 intels have a max of 100 degrees.

Is it okay for me to push it that far even for short gaming sessions (1.5-3hrs) ?

you can, but better not. Besides, you're losing performance because the CPU wont boost its frequency as high.

No. The clock speed will be lower and lifespan of the chip will be significantly shorter.

Any solutions and or recommendations or should I give up on gaming on my laptop?

replace the thermal paste (send it back to Acer for RMA if you have warranty, voiding it sucks) and undervolt the CPU. You can even undervolt the GPU if you have time.

Replace thermal paste, get a laptop cooler exhauster or laptop cooler or utilize lower graphical settings until summer dies out.

NEVER GIVE UP. NEVER STOP LEARNING. DONT LET THE PAST HURT YOU. YOU CAN DOOOOO IT

Could lowering significantly reduce the impact?

Update: This is the status of my cores, when running Nier in low settings for about 10 min. Is it viable?
