Gaming Laptop Suddenly Slows Down In Video Games

[doomlure94]

I have this laptop Asus ROG GL752VW since 2015. Was running absolutely great,cleaned the dust fans and everything only once tho.
For like 1 month now after all the new windows 10 updates my laptop suddenly became slower and slower in all videogames.
I remember playing GTA5, The Witcher Wild Hunt and Fallout 4 at almost max settings with absolutely no problem, no frame drops or low framerates,nor overheating. I also had a cooling pad since I bought the laptop, always on max fan speed.
Now I can still play those games but with 20-30 fps on lower settings, on high they will stay at around 10-15.
I tried reinstalling windows, deleting everything. Updated all drivers, tried older drivers, even the ones from Asus Support site, the old drivers.

I am no expert in reading temps and core clocks, memories and all that so I would really appreciate if someone can take a look for me.
Thank you

If you have MSI Afterburner or HWInfo then run it while playing a game. Take a screenshot of the temperature readings or just write them down and tell us what your CPU and GPU are showing. My guess is that your thermals are causing throttling.

GPU current:82*C max:86*C
CPU current 84*C max:92*C

Those are very dangerous temperatures. I would try and clean dust out of it, if you can. It could be the reason for overheating.

Those temps were monitored while I was playing Dragon Age Inquisition at medium settings. Used to play this game on high at 50-60fps, no stutter or any lag.
I am trying to mess around with turbo boost a bit and see if that helps.

Those temps are high especially for a laptop. Clean your fans and, if you can, open up your laptop and dust out any and all heatsinks.

thermal throttling as already answered - clean that bad boy! I check my rigs 1 time a month, and youd be amazed what can gather in there (and I run extreme positive pressure with everything sealed or fine filtered)

Thank you all for your help, I will send my laptop to be cleaned.
All the best!
