So the GeForce 755m GPU in my Lenevo Y510p gets extremely hot after just hours of gaming (95-98°C.) I am looking for every known way to decrease the temperature

A coworker had that. Took it apart, and pulled out a BIG ball of lint.
It had also killed the fan. Ok...order new fan....take all that apart...install.

Of course it still doesn't run right.
'Dude...did you clean and reapply the thermal paste on the CPU heatsink?'
"No"
:ouch:

OP....clean the dust out.
