I found this simple way to prevent overheating.

When I play high graphic games on my laptop, I noticed it really gets hot.

So I found a very simple solution which seems to work great.

In power plan settings, you can reduce maximum processor rate to 80%.

It is usually set at 100% when you buy the laptop or install windows.

But if you reduce it to 80%, it means no game can use more than 80% of processor, thus heat is really reduced.

I didnt really notice any performance reduction. Games still play just as good, but laptop no longer overheats.

Also, I must say, if you place maximum rate at 80%, minimum rate must be set to lower than 80%.

Put it in a bucket of Iced water.

Should do the trick.
