Nvidia 1060 MaxQ Laptop (Heat Problem)

So for about a year now i have my Acer Aspire V17 Nitro (https://www.amazon.de/Acer-VN7-793G-5811-Full-HD-i5-7300HQ-1-000GB/dp/B075GD6ZS5?th=1) but instead of the i7 i have an i5 7300HQ. And recently i started to have some heat problems while gaming. Its all fine when only the cpu is under full usage and the highest i got there is 75-80°C but once the gpu is also under full usage both go up to 91°C or even higher but mostly stick to the 91°C. And so here comes the weird part for me atleast while playing black ops 4 the clock speed of the 1060 goes up to 1800mHz???! even to the 1060 MaxQ should only go up to 1400mHz. But that only happens in some games because in csgo it stays at 1400mhz.

And also the gpu doesnt throttle at all but cpu does. And i realy dont want to play long gaming sessions with 91°C.

GPU boost 3 kicking in, standard feature for Pascal

Undervolting your CPU in Intel XTU can help a lot. My CPU dropped from 90C to around 80C under full load with my small undervolt.

Then a repaste is one of your last options. Some BIOS' will allow you to change your fan speed curve, try messing around with that if possible.

Even got 1900mHz today once.But shouldnt it at 95°C go down?

And yeah was planning on redoing my thermal paste.
