My laptop is a ASUS Rog GL503GE with GTX 1050Ti and Intel® Core™ i5-8300H 2.30 GHz to 4.00 GHz 8 MB SmartCache Cores: 4 Threads: 8. I purchased this laptop some 1 year ago.It was running just fine with max 67-70 degree C on some 8 hours of games like Apex Legends.

But suddenly I started getting sudden drop of fps to below 30s and game freezes. I'm now getting a temp upto 90+ degress and it barely goes down below 75C. The fans are active and I tried to reduce processor power management to some 90% which worked well before. But now it doens't work. Hence, I tried undervolting the CPU to -150 mV. Now it doesn't reach 90 but reaches up to 87 which is still bad+ I get fps drops. I want to know if my gpu or cpu is dying. I put all the money I had to buy this Please help.. I added some screenshots from intel XTU interface -

Solution
Were the screenshots made before the problems started? Can´t see temperatures higher than 66°C

check the vent holes, if there is dust or similar

What is your ambient temperature?


to have a look what the problem could be:
run userbenchmark.com and post the http link of your result, e.g. https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/28977730

check windows integrity
open the command prompt as administrator and type DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

check the memory by running memtest.org usb autoinstaller (bootable USB flash drive)

check the hard drive for errors with its manufacturer´s tool

use ddu uninstaller and reinstall the latest graphics driver from the ASUS homepage (intel and nvidia)

Thanks for reaching out . .. I took the snap after the system cooled down to get an average spike. It reaches up to 90 eventually. My ambient room temp is some 33 C but even in hotter rooms it used to work fine..

I ran the commands and benchamrk test as you suggested.. it found no system corruption but during benchmarking, it says that it can't find the Nvidia GPU attached to display ..
