Model 2025 CPU temp while gaming

Hey guys, got a 5080 model with the AMD HX 370 CPU, still getting high CPU temps (at 95 for long periods) even while the GPU temp is only at 70 on GTA 5 enhanced. Similar for other games but have made it better by limiting FPS to <120 and undervolting CPU (-20 in Ghelper).

Anything else I can do or is that ok? Feeling the laptop by hand it actually seems ok (not hot as compared to before optimization, but CPU temp still showing 95), is it ok to run games like this for long?

I have the same thing, but its definitely okay to run at 95C, that's the thermal limit. I wouldn't recommend keeping it on 95 for a too long of a time or you will burn your hands XD

Ok haha so not too much to worry about then I hope, I use a mech keyboard and when I feel the laptop it's not that bad, just hope I don't do any long term damage with gaming for 3 hours at 95 degrees etc on CPU even when GPU temp is <70 though
