I have a 3-year-old ROG Strix G513QM, and I've noticed that the CPU temperature reaches 95 °C when gaming. Was wondering if anyone could recommend a good cooling pad to reduce the temperature.
Thanks!

Hello,
Anything that has a foam seal between the cooling pad and laptop will work well as these cooling pads will force air through the laptop base vents, like some from Llano or similar.
But your temperatures, were they always like that from new? Because over time the liquid metal on the CPU eventually gets pushed off the CPU due to the effect of parts expanding and contracting under heat. So as the laptop is used it's thermal efficiency decreases, 3 years without any servicing or replacement to this would mean its likely no longer doing a good job so a cooling pad will generally not help much under these conditions.

Changing the thermao paste and clean the laptop is the FIRST best thing you can do to fix the temp the
SECOND best thing is to buy IETS GT 500 and yes not 600 but 500 becouse IETS GT 500 have metal dust filter that never need change buy just wash it whit water and your laptop will be cool and clean ... No other opinion can help more thant this if you buy it wash it every 2-3 days to minimize the dust and you will be perfect
