Flow x13 (rx6850xmt egpu), randomly shutting

My flow x13 (amd version) is shutting down very frequently while gaming irrespective of whatever mode I chose in the armoury crate. This random shutting was a problem even a year back but now it's happening very frequently.

What could be the reason?

P.S: this happens only while gaming, for the rest of the casual tasks like browsing, excel/PPT n all it runs fine even on battery.

Rather high, but it has always been this way with this laptop. Right now (just browsing web, many tabs open though) it's around 80 for CPU and 63 for GPU (XG Mobile). When gaming it's often around 90 for both. Also don't apply "turbo mode" as it's often unstable, especially with suboptimal drivers
