@Watlus Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you are facing the overheating issue.

HP will not recommend applying the thermal paste by the user. 

There are many ways to increase FPS and system performance: 

• Update the BIOS. 

For desktop PCs, go to HP Desktop PCs - Updating the BIOS. 

For notebook PCs, go to HP Notebook PCs - Updating the BIOS 

• Update the graphics driver. 

Go to HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads, enter your PC model, then select the driver for your graphics card. 

• Most games allow you to change the graphics settings. Using a lower graphic quality often improves FPS. 

• Close any applications or programs that are not being used. 

• Turn on Game Mode. Game Mode is a new feature in Windows 10 Creators Update that improves gaming performance by limiting background processes and programs from using system resources while a game is running.
