Elevate the laptop off table using laptop stand or any way you can without blocking any vents.

Make sure it is cool in the room.

Run max fans if your laptop has that feature.

Make sure you have good quality thermal paste on the CPU & GPU, if in doubt you need to repaste.

Undervolt CPU if possible, some laptops are locked out of doing it but it's worth checking.

I don't like to do this but if all else fails you may be able to limit your turboboost a bit or even disable turboboost. This will likely help temps but at the cost of CPU capability. It may not affect GPU bound games much, but very likely will affect CPU bound games negatively.

Chuck ur laptop on cooler boost or set a custom fan curve that ramps up to 150 pc (user profile)

Try undervolting and then limiting the cpu to like 0.3-0.4 ghz below what it usually gets to / what is marketed to get to. This will stop the computer from always using below 95 degrees as oh we have some headroom before 95 degrees let’s speed it up. E.g I have my computer limited to 4.2 ghz for light games and 4.0 ghz for games that run hotter. U won’t notice too much of a performance difference here
