Laptop cpu temp safe?

[Firestar1994]

So I have a msi ge 75 raider 9sg. Got the i9 9k processor. Rtx 2080 yada yada. It's a gaming laptop note. And when playing simply just monster hunter my cpu temps hit a max of 90 celcius. Never goes over that rarely 91 or 92. Just curious as if this is safe temps for my processor and a gaming laptop. Also I have it on sport/turbo mode as well. As long as it's safe to play it that way in long sessions I'll be happy. Plus theres no bottle necking or frame dips. Everything seems fine just the high temp worries me. Not sure of it's just monster hunter being a bad pc port because all ok ther games even cpu heavy dont hit my cpu temo that way lol. Again it's only for this game itself. I hope it's safe and I'm just overthinking it with this laptop I got. I love it.

I also want to know about this, but i guess if its around 70-80 c its alright, it should not go 90 for too long.

It's a laptop. High temps are inevitable, especially with something that puts out as much heat as a 9900k

90 IS a little high, but still within safety range. Your cpu throttles to protect its self at 100.

There are devices that help getting heated air faster away from the laptop. Just check for laptop cooler. Never checked it for gaming, as i use mine only for work. But maybe one of those could help getting the temps down to more reasonable values.

I mean, i am no one thats afraid of heavy CPU loads and such, but 90° is quite alot for a CPU. However, reading articles that particular processor is known to get pretty hot due to its power consumption. Limit from reading is at about 100°. So yea, i would suggest trying to find either a better or additional cooling solution.

I would say nice and powerful CPU, but wrong casing for it. That thing is better taken care off by a full blown cooling solution, be it water cooling or a decently sized fan, and not to be confined in the tiny space of a laptop.

Still, i would first try to opimize cooling. Dunno what season is currently up in your area, but if its winter and summer is comming, well - rising room temperatures might become an issue. Unless you have an AC.

Well I've noticed other posts about this in the monster hunter discussion actually about it doing the same thing even on the beefiest of rigs. People are saying its gotta do with how capcom did stuff with the cores and stuff during the port. I have a cooling fan. It's a cheaper one but I'm willing to get a good one if you have any suggestions.

If your CPU operated in 90C or higher for a long period of time, it'll reduce the lifespan of your CPU. Get yourself a cooling pad or something cuz you really don't want your CPU to die on a Laptop, it's a pain to replace one.

Would love to help in terms of suggestions, but when it comes to PC building i am only familiar with big rig stuff. Dunno which brands are avaiable and to which extend your cooling could be optimized - at least from the internal perspective. The additional external fan solutions cost usually arround 20 bucks - but i dunno if the effect will be that big. I only bought one as it can be used as normal fan and only runs on USB power, which is kinda handy on business trips and hot days.

You can do a few thing
-Raise your laptop higher, usually a cooler pad would do the trick not their fans
-Undervolt the CPU - Well lower CPU maximum power also do the trick but at performance cost compare to undervolt
-Repaste the thermal gel, if you use stock paste cause they're usually pretty bad

I'm running i9-9900k@5.1ghz w/liquid cooling, 2080ti oc. One core would occasionally hit 75c while playing cap 60fps at 4k. That's hot considering more demanding games doesn't even reach 72c. Hitting 90c for an extended amount of time is going to literally destroy the cpu long term.
lower the power setting first and see if it drops/ graphic settings/ try to ventilate the laptop better/ undervolt cpu/ raise the ambient temp. Easiest one is go into your advance power option and lower the cpu power usage to say 80%, mhw is probably utilizing it at 100%. Do something lol

I have a cooling pad. And uve done some testing. Borderlands 3 gta 5 rainbow six seige red dead redemption 2(neat ultra settings) destiny 2 all ran fine on temps with the setting maxed out minus rdr2. The temps averaged 75 to 85 on the games. The cooler boost doesnt even need to come on but with mhw cooler boost plus my fan my cpu is at 90 sometimes 91. Never freezes crashes lags. Hence my confusion. It's literally just this game even at the lowest settings. The trees are great but the cpu temp doesnt change lol.

I feel I need to ask you, if you are sitting there with no game open and you open, say chrome. Do your temps skyrocket for a moment in time?

Nope. No skyrocket. Chrome. YouTube. Internet.

And again extra confirmed low settings. My fps is amazing lol. However my cpu is sitting at a solid 90 celcius still. Its soo weird.

When you turn the game off, does it slowly decrease, or go instantly down to 50-40?

Well MH anti-cheat system actively scan your game while playing which increase the load on your CPU by a lot. The newer MH update did reduce how often the system do a scan but it's still there. Some people see a good improvement by deactivate the anti-cheat by using reset CRC, so you may want to try that as well.

Do you use Windows Defender? I used it while playing MHWI, and it took CPU usage like 30% and CPU's temperature was always around 90 Celcius degree while playing, even though I didn't notice any stuttering or frame drop. So I used other vaccine program to turn it off, and CPU usage from Windows Defender has gone, also temperature got lower to around 75-83
