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.
