@Player_njlrsklo You're looking at the temperatures in Fahrenheit. Please switch to Celsius. The CPU shouldn't get into the high 90s Celsius, and the other components should be cooler, with the possible exceptions of one or two motherboard sensors that I'm not sure would get picked up.
I don't know whether you can return this laptop or not, but while you wait for a cooling pad, try pointing a fan directly at your slightly elevated laptop (put books under the corners) while you play, and see what the temps look like. The system should throttle performance before temperatures become immediately dangerous, although you wouldn't want to sustain CPU temps at or close to 100º C for too long.
ohhh wow celsius. ok that’s good to know so it was at 93 celsius at its highest point ok And now that i put the books it still makes noise but it deff isn’t as hot it’s at like 80 degrees celcius. So i guess i’m ok for now. except for the sound is kind of annoying. but there is nothing i can do about the fans sound right? Thank you!
@Player_njlrsklo Yeah, the sound of the fans is kind of unavoidable. The real problem would be if they weren't making noise. I play with headphones, so I never notice how loud they get.
Running at 80º C while you play is pretty good, especially for a computer with an integrated graphics chip like yours. You don't have to worry about excess heat, or that the system will throttle performance much either.
