Guys , I bought this brand new laptop days ago , and I noticed that GPU temperatures are good - like 50-60 while gaming and 77max on stress test.But the CPU while gaming some CPU intensive games sometimes spikes up to 95C and even 96(when loading games , maps and when playing CPU intensive games it stays in the high 80's or 91 max).When I disable CPU boost from G-helper (I have fan curve which leads like 30C-40% fan speed, 40C-50% fan speed and so on..), it barely hits +75C degrees but that way I don't use its full potential and I see somewhere drops from 5-10-15fps.Anyway , I want to use the laptop with boost enabled but the CPU temeprature bothers me since the 7435hs cpu is described with 95C Tjmax and I don't want to damage the chip or something over time(at least not in the next 2 years when I pay the laptop cuz I bought it on leasing).I am waiting my cooling pad to arrive in the next few days but I don't believe it will do any job because the intake holes of the laptop are pretty small. Do you guys think I have to repaste the factory paste with MX-6 thermal paste because in a previous laptop that I had (FX505DT ,2020) it lowered down the temperatures with 20C for gpu and 10-15C for CPU) and It wasn't necessary to even buy an cooling pad - well when I opened the FX505DT laptop(2020) the factory thermal paste was something like jelly, not cooked or something , but like jelly and white.I wonder if this is the case with this new laptop because there are no information about what thermal paste is used in manufactoring these laptops. I know this cpu is much more powerfull than the FX505DT Ryzen 5 3550h and getting higher temps is logical but still hitting the Tjmax is bothering me. The laptop is 4 days old since I got it. Idle temperatures with boost disabled are around and under 40C for both cpu and gpu , and with boost enabled are 50C for cpu and 40 for GPU.When gaming - temperatures with disabled boost are perfect for a laptop , but I need to leave on the table 10-15fps in the cpu intesive games.I paid for it and I want to use it all(I hope you understand what I mean).Yeah , it's a budget gaming laptop I know....And laptop hardware is performing much worse than the PC hardware of the same type and that's the reason I want to use all of it's potential (that 15 fps matters for me) .I noticed that In battlefield 2042 , when I enable boost - the fps is same but the cpu is throttling and make my game looks awful even tho I have stable 100+ fps ,when I disable boost it stays around the same fps but the game runs much more smoothly. This happens only in this game.In world of tanks I have 144stablewith boost enabled and the game runs smoothly(I think it locks with G-sync) , when I turn off it goes 120-130 and the game doesn't look so good.

You may have to find an acceptable level of performance and live with it. Sacrificing 10-15 fps for more sustainable temps isn't that bad. Taking it apart to re-apply TIM will most likely void your warranty, so you might want to take it up with the manufacturer first. Or send it back and get something else. I wouldn't own an Asus laptop personally.
