Hello guys.
I have an acer nitro 5 AN515-31-52DR ( i5 8250U & mx150 2gb & 12gb ram & 1tb ssd) which it is charging normally on desktop/youtube/etc, but when i'm playing dota 2 or anything which consumes more resources or power it stopps charging and i have to pull and put it back on the AC adapter and so on, but when i go alt+tab or quit the game it continous to charge.I have the original AC adapter of 65W (3.42A), i tried another original AC adapter of 90W (4.74A) and the problem persists.
I have tried updating the drivers and using the integrated graphic card but nothing changes , change the battery with a new original one, uninstalled the battery driver and the problem still persists.

Sounds like some component is overheating and the system is trying to protect itself from permanent harm. I suspect the battery is overheating when what you described is happening.

You try a laptop cooler, but I really don't have much confidence in those as effective devices.
