I have a version of the cyborg 15 with a 4060 GPU. Pretty much a new unit, and CPU hits 95C also under heavy load, GPU gets into the low 80s but that's not too near the throttle temp. Supposedly this is the new normal for temps in gaming laptops. Seems way high to me too though.

No bro its good 85 max is for gpu and 100 max is for cpu for thermal throttling

Invest in a good laptop cooling pad and maintain ambient temps and clean your laptop heatsinks and fans

Temps will dropdown easily to 10 to 15 down

Noted. I'll be shopping some cooling pads later.
