My laptop is almost 3 years old and lately I haven't been able to run most games at a decent fps, I'm not talking about new games, even games I used to run at acceptable settings back when i bought this laptop barely run at horrible fps. Is there anything I can do to improve this? Or is the laptop just worn out?

I've tried a clean windows installation and I have the correct up to date drivers. I've also noticed that it's mostly my GPU bottlenecking the performance I believe my CPU still runs at the max speed as before.

Also there's this thing where my laptop shuts down suddenly If i have memory demanding applications on, does that mean my RAM is faulty?
 

I cleaned everything a few days ago, I also replaced the thermal paste but it hasn't gotten any better

 


Well, playing something a little demanding gives me over 80 Celsius degrees maybe even 88 on both CPU and GPU.
I reapplied thermal paste but the temps are still horrible while gaming but as soon as i stop the temps go down instantly.
I was able to play this game at decent graphics smoothly like 3 days ago but starting like yesterday It's running at like 40-50 fps on lowest settings.
