Laptop shutting down after minutes in-game.

Not open for further replies.
Hello,
my laptop seems to be randomly shutting down after 3-5 mins after playing certain games.

It's an Asus ROG G750JX and fairly old but it has what I need to play those, but there is the problem with it just shutting down.

I already cleaned the Laptop from inside out and installed new fans, even tho this helps a bit the laptop still shuts down quiet quickly so its obviously not dirty.
My guess is that the still do not work correctly as they dont speed before the Pc shuts down. I tried installing things like Speedfan and MSI Afterburner to manually control the fan speeds, just to find out that i cannot raise the rpm of the fans manually. I also updated my graphic card driver.

Welcome to PCHF Irrational,

This would normally suggest a heat problem and being a notebook not just the notebook itself but the main power brick and the mains charger.

Do you continually use the notebook with the main battery in place and connected to the wall socket using the AC adaptor.
