    Hi, I am interested in getting a refurbished Dell G5 15" with the i7 8750H and the GTX 1060 and was curious about thermals on this device. Will I need to repaste to keep temps below 90c on CPU? Or can a simple under-volt suffice with a cooling stand?

    I play games like BFV, BF1, WoW, ESO, Witcher 3, Kingdom Come, etc...

    I think the previous generation was not doing well with thermals, but the new chassis is available and i supposed to be better.
    No tests or reviews online yet though...
