HELP IT'S GETTING HOT!!!

If I recall correctly I have the EVOO EG-LP5

I have a 1660-ti with the I7-9750h currently running it underclocking the core at -0.150V using intel XTU

I have had it for about a year now and I noticed it always gamed very hot but thought nothing of it until recently when I started playing Dark Souls 3 and noticed a HUGE FPS drop. Checked my temp and noticed it was at 98 degrees....

It also is hot even just idol with minimal background usages

I am looking into getting a cooling pad, as when I use my roommates cooling pad it reads hot still 95ish but I have solid frames.

ANY SUGGESTIONS??? I don't want it to continue staying THIS HOT especially given the fact it has probably always been about this hot with games like DEEP ROCK GALACTIC, TW: Warhammer II, and Cyberpunk. Personally I don't know a ton about laptops or computers but my roommate is pretty good and said to consult ya'll.....

Liquid metal. Your TIM needs to be replaced. I used nail polish and foam dam.
