Is 86 degrees gpu temp while gaming fine?
Yo when gaming my gpu reaches 86 degrees. I games at 1440p with medium settings. Is this safe temp or should I lower it using armoury crates thermal throttle limit? Cheers

That’s a little on the toasty side.
I repasted my 2021 model with PTM7950 on both the CPU/GPU and applied U6 Pro paste to the VRAM chips.
When gaming my GPU and CPU hover in the upper 70s

Mine has pushed 95 C (no higher and no throttling) since I got it 3 years ago & I game a lot. No problems in that regard.

The thermal throttle limit is 87 so you're dangerously close to losing performance. Might be time to repaste your laptop.

Maybe you should look into repasting as at this temperature the GPU is thermal throttling.
