Hi guys, my Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 (i5-13500HX, RTX 4050) has been overheating badly

CPU hits 100°C within a minute under load and throttles immediately, causing constant crashes (DEVICE_HUNG, DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED) and even BSODs (nvlddmkm.sys driver crash, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL). Also does anyone ever experienced this?

Was previously brought to a shop for loud fan noise and the issue returned shortly after, so I'm looking to get it properly repasted this time possibly with liquid metal if anyone has experience with that on laptop GPUs, or just a high quality regular paste if that's the safer/recommended route.

Thanks in advance!
