Sure you are going to lose a small amount of performance but if the ventilation in the laptop isn't designed that well it might just solve your problem.
This solved it. I started by rolling back to 90 and then have been rolling the game for an hour and while still hot it is a marked improvement. I bring it back just a little more if the game is going to run properly and the temps come down.

Thanks again!
