It is am incredibly demanding game. Keep playing this game and you'll kill your laptop.

Get an external keyboard. No heat and easier controls, at the same time. I have a laptop too.

And a little joke. First use Qwen Sign, then Igni, lol! :P

There are other reasons than money to not want to buy a high-end gaming desktop, you know. Space, for instance. When I was younger I was unable to have a desktop simply because I didn't have anywhere to put one. My gaming happened on a laptop which I'd move around the house to find quiet areas.

Edit: To the OP: I'll echo what other posters here have said, and suggest getting a laptop cooler, or investigating whether your laptop is defective and if so, returning it to the organisation you bought it from. Your components are well above the minimum requirements, so the computer shouldn't be heating up that much, suggesting a hardware fault.

Given you bought this computer a couple of weeks ago, it's possible that TW3 is the first really demanding game you've run on it. If you have other games with highish system requirements, you might want to try running them to see if they cause the same overheating issues.

Also, there's no need to put everything in capitals, we're quite capable of reading lower case letters.

I can relate. There was this game that I learned as a little kid that left my hands covered in hair.

IT IS FEATURE. YOU MUST COMPREHEND, IT VERY COLD IN POLISHLAND. POLISHLAND OF POLES LOCATED ON ARCTIC. ARTIC VERY COLD. WITCHER 3 MAKES HOT FOR GOOD WARMING OF POLISHANDS. I GO CLUB SEAL NOW. OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS VERY IMPORTANT, MUST HAVE SEAL. BUT POOR BABY SEAL MUST DIE. POLISHSADNESS.

I AM FOR APPROVAL OF YOUR ACCURATE FACTS. HAVE A POLISHED SEAL OF POLISH APPROVAL!

in communist china , hands BURN YOU!

The game is too hot to handle.

YOU SHOULD DROP IT LIKE IT'S HOT!

You bought an expensive gaming laptop of cheap quality, that has poor thermals and is overheating. How much did you pay and what is the company? And how long do you have to refund it?

Grt an external keyboard...

hehe. my laptop was running incredibly hot as well when playing tw3 on min settngs. but i was playing in winter in Australia so during cutscenes I put my hands next to the exhaust to warm them up :D :D it was like a blow dryer. but keyboard was fine.
just slightly warmer compared to the rest of the room.


my guess is that your fan in laptop is either broken or just bad. the fan in my laptop is powerful enough to blow papers from my desk if they are lying to close to the laptop. when running at max settings.

1600$.....MSI GE72 2QF.....

And what happens when the video card overheats and kills the computer instead of the warning of burning hands to stop?
