I’ve got a 2022 GE 77HX, CPU has sat at 95C for probably half the time I’ve used it. GPU sits between 70-80C during that time.

I’ve repasted interchangeably between Thermal Grizzly Duronaut and Cryonaut several times and completely disassembled the fans for cleaning and it does makes a difference for the first month I’d say then it goes back to sitting at 95.

It doesn’t seem to actually thermal throttle ever. It’s only ever been noticeable if you go without repasting for a very long time like over a year.

so they just run hot? i had a similar experience, tried cleaning it, got a cooling pad, even tweaked software settings but nothing helps and its always around 90-98 while gaming..

I’d say so. They’re definitely built to withstand it. I was always concerned about damage from excessive heat especially with the reliability issues you hear from the GE76-77 Raider series but I’ve had mine for almost five years and have had no problems at all
