still having overheat even after repasting my CPU and GPU (Laptop)

[Frost]

so today, i bought Kryonaut Thermal Grizzly. It is said that it's the best thermal paste in the world rn (according to Linus and Google).

Before repasting my temps for CPU is 82-88 C during heavy load (gaming , rendering videos, and stresstesting using XTU). And my GPU temps is around 80-86 C during heavy load.

according to Linus' video the temps are 20 degrees Celcius cooler than before repasting. So i bought it, and it actually kinda works.. kinda..

My CPU temps during stresstesting using XTU is 60-77 C
My GPU temps during benchmark (Heaven's Benchmark) is 68-77 C
BUT when i launch Final Fantasy XV the CPU temps is still at 85 C (and gets higher overtime) and the GPU temps is 75-80 C (which is an improvement i guess but not as much as i expect it would be..)

are these normal or maybe i might have put the thermal paste in the wrong way?

My laptop is ROG GL553VD (i7 7700HQ with GTX 1050)

Laptops by nature run quite hot under load, and it does look like it did have an improvement - so I would check out getting a laptop cooler (always recommend for gaming) something like the TT Massive V20[www.thermaltake.com] it's commonly under $20 USD at various outlets. I use one of these to test laptops that have failing fans, it's usually enough to get it to run the OS to troubleshoot to a point.

New good quality paste will increase heat transfer but in laptops that efficiency of transfer diminishes quickly. Once heat soaked the small heatsinks can only remove so much heat from the package. Untill you start to notice thermal throttling I wouldn't worry about it. Laptop components are designed to run hot and they generally do it without losing performance while consuming less power than desktop components.

does laptop cooler works though? i have a $10 cooling pad and it doesn't make any difference.. idk with the more expensive ones though..

in the XTU it says that my CPU has reached it's Thermal Throttling status. From what i see the thermal throttling starts when my CPU reached 80 C..

still impressed with the GPU temps though.. it's really stays at 73 C no matter how long i'm playing the game.. but with the CPU after around 5 mins the CPU reached 85 C

The 7700HQ can run upto 100c like most Intel CPUs. you shouldn't be throttling at 85c

Not peaking upwards of 90*C then you're not overheating. 85*C should be just fine

a bit late but, which is the right way to apply a thermal paste on a laptop? i see Dave2D applying the thermal paste by just opening the heatsink, pour a little bit of it, and immediately put the heatsink cover back. But i see other tech youtuber said pour a it AND THEN use a card (or if the purchased thermal paste include a spatula) to shove the paste equally until the whole CPU covered up by the paste..

for a bare die its best to spread imo. for ihs just a small blob in the middle will suffice

Laptops, man. U can reduce the temps by decreasing the graphics settings and using a framerate limit. Sure, it's not an actual solution, but at least u've got this until u come up with something better like undervolting or replacing the heatsink.

Did you properly clean off the old paste before reapplying?
Also make sure you're not using too much, or too little.
Wiggle the heat sink a little as you push it down into place and make sure you don't lift it up because it can create air bubbles.
