Have my MSI GF63 with i7, 16gb ram and GTX 1650 MAX-Q 4GB for like maybe year, from beginning while playing LOL or D3 i find out that my CPU temp is jumping to 90-93C, on normal fan mode, so i start playing on advanced with my own setting pushing fan to 80% speed,
temp 85-90C, however, a loud noise began to disturb me, today i apply new thermal paste and this is what i find out on pic 1/2. I think this it's not the best paste application from MSI? So i apply new on pic 3, is that good? Now my temp with lower fan speed are like 75-85C, there's something else i could do to make my laptop cooler? or this temp should be fine? Thx for any advice!

is you're power setting on power saver? that could bring the temp down also try a cooling pad. gaming laptops are always going to have high temps and burn out faster than a gaming desktop.

how are the fans? dying? dusty?

are you using the laptop on a flat surface? or like on a bed?

get an aftermarket cooler pad, it usually has vents and more fans to help keep the temp down.
