Hello! 

I have a gaming laptop with the following specs: 

CPU: i7 9750H
GPU: RTX 2070
RAM: 16 GB 2666 MHz Dual channel

I have NBA Jam up and running no issues and it looks beautiful! With framelimit off, it runs at around 120 fps in game. 

I just have one question: how can I reduce my CPU temperatures??? When gaming, my CPU temps are around 95 degrees C, and from looking at YouTube videos, other users of this emulator are able to play their games on lower-spec laptops with much lower temperatures. Any help I can get is greatly appreciated.

Maybe try cleaning it, fans could be dusty, try improving room temperature as well
You can always try some cooling pad but never seen relevant results from using one

My fans are clean and my ambient temperatures don't make any other emulator or game run anywhere even close to those temperatures. Plus, I recently re-applied liquid metal to my CPU and GPU to get my temps low and they are virtually the same as the day I applied them. 

Are these temperatures normal for this emulator on laptops for this game? Or is there some setting that I need to modify? I've included a zipped log file to give some insight.

Less than 1kb log means empty log.

If your CPU usage is constantly high, then it may be 'normal' for your laptop to run at that temperature. Depends on how your laptop was designed.
