Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share my recent experience with gaming on my laptop. While playing CS:GO was manageable, CS2 was a different story. My laptop kept hitting thermal limits, causing frustrating performance drops. So, I decided to do it myself and repaste it.

I wrote a simple script to monitor my temperatures and frequencies: thermalog script.

The results speak for themselves: thermalog results.

I wasn’t even near to thermal limit even when I played in 2K instead of FHD.

I used Arctic MX-6. (I bought liquid metal also as a backup plan, but luckily I don’t need it). I’m more than happy with the results.

My laptop is four years old, I highly recommend giving it a go if you’re facing similar thermal issues.

Happy gaming!
