>>19750751There's an option in steam for download region location. If it's set to Houston and you're the town rapist then it's going to be slow. Search it up and you'll see how to do it.
>>19750851I don't because it's not necessary anymore. BIOS updates are safe for the most part.
>>19751147Yes you can just buy better fans, heating pads and thermal paste. If you really want to be the goat then gut the whole thing, adapt a water cooler to mount to your CPU and nestle the whole thing in a cardboard box.
Your options for repair and optimization are pretty limited because it's a laptop.
Most manufacturers use cheap thermal paste and fans. You can also get a stand with fans in it to help cool it down.
I'm fairly confident it's a thermal paste issue though if a BIOS reset didn't solve it.
Trust me when I say taking it to a shop is a waste of time and money. You'd be better off getting a new one or building a PC.
There's very little I can do without either remoting in to dump through a bunch of diagnostics or having the device in my own hands.
I'm sorry I can't be of more help. I wish you the best of luck in the repair of your device.
