Hi guys! I need to read your thoughs about this...
Ok January 2017 I bought a Asus ROG Strix GL502VM. It's a 6th generation Intel i7 with a Nvidia gtx 1060 all stock with very little use. Last week I installed FC5 and the noise of the fans alerted me to check temps. I then used msi afterburn to control temps while playing and was shocked about this hi temps. 100°C on the CPU is too much, but the GPU was mid 80's. The only way I can safely play is by cutting fps to 30.
I then though about doing a stress test on the CPU with IntelBurnTest and the temps went all the way to 98°C.
The laptop is on warranty period and I'm thinking about take it to the store cause it's not normal in my opinion.
It's a gaming range laptop so it should be able to handle games that are within the minimum specs to play the game.
It should not be necessary to buy a cooling pad to play on a gaming range laptop, it should be designed and built to handle games within their specs.
What do you guys think?
Thanks.
