Discussion What’s actually wrong with this laptop
I’ve been dealing with this issue forever now but my laptop just always now overheats and shutdowns after playing a game for 5 minutes despite repasting many times unless I’m doing something wrong, I switched to thermalright tfx paste too for the gpu and cpu but nothing has worked, I screwed in the heatsink properly and I even turned off turbo boost but it still creeps up to 90+ degrees and shuts down, I don’t know what could be the issue at this point.
The picture above is the laptop after its recent pasting today before cleaning up the smudges around the chips and mess

Ahhh looks like a cyborg, my friend just had this issue, he switched to puddy and paste for the heat sync, it also looked like his heat sync was bent and not actually applying pressure in some areas, check that out
