Solved! Acer Predator Helios 300 overheating while gaming!!!

[Harishvar]

i recently bought(4-5 days back) an acer predator helios 300 with i5 8th gen (8300H) and gtx 1060...the system has been performing seemingly well and all the games were running very smooth...i tried nfs payback, pubg mobile, nfs the run, nfs rivals...finally when i wanted to play my favorite title GTA V..the system was overheating like anything...i kept my fans at max and turned on cool boost from predator sense but even then the maximum temperature was 95 degrees..but the gpu temperature was fine (70-80)...

and also this is a new rig, so there is no chance of any dust or something getting clogged..so i dont know whats wrong with my pc...should i send it for replacement or what should be done??Any helps would be appreciated...Thanks

Some games run harder than others. You can get a external cooler for your laptop to have 2 sources to cool down the computer.
