    High cpu temperatures only during gaming

    I have laptop with a i7 7820hk and it will never go over high 80s to low 90s while stressed tested at 4.4ghz but when gaming it drops to 3.2ghz or lower at like 95-100 degrees is there a reason the gaming is much hotter and has such low speed over all with the lowest core voltage offset I can do?

    My fx-8320 is under performing

    The reason i would go with a 4790k is I found one for a decent price and it would cost more to upgrade the new architecture and I do multitask heavily so the 4 extra threads help
