First of all my specs:

Grahpics cards(its dual grahpics):
AMD Radeon HD 8610G
AMD Radeon R7 M260

Processor(4 cores):
AMD A10-5745M APU with Radeon HD Graphics

Operating System:
Windows 8.1 (used to be Windows 10 but I downgraded since some forums said windows 10 causes gpu gore clock stuck or something like that)

RAM:
8.0 GB

I think thats enough about specs if there is something specfic then ask.

Anyway my problem is that I get low fps in games. For example in Leauge of Legends I get max 90 fps with lowest settings (highest reso although) which drops to 30 sometimes. In cs go I can barely get 30 fps which is pathetic. I used to play skyrim and bf3 with no problem now I cant even play cs go on normal fps. Im using older drivers since dual grahpics have some conflict issues and if I use newest drivers I get even lower fps. For example in Leauge of Legends fps is stuck at 23 no matter what.

For some reason gpu gore clock is stuck at 400 mhz but max is 980mhz so something is bottlenecking. Temperatures are rather high even my monitor software showed 500C on one occasion which is unreal, so I checkd for dust on fan, there was little dust but I couldnt fully open laptop since lack of tools at the moment.

Also hp gives me warning that my charger might not give full power that needed and I also set my power options to max peformance as well setting amd settings to use my dedicated and more powerful grahipcs card while gaming.

So any ideas what could be problem?
 
I mentioned in my post that I already did that if I use newer ones they dont work(device manager shows them with exclamation mark) so I downloaded proper drivers but still fps issue is still there.
 
You could be thermal throttling. Download MSI Afterburner and keep it open and try to play a game for 30 seconds and check temperatures.
 
Temperatures are rather high but I had thermal paste applied few months ago and I opened laptop today not much of dust there.

Yeah I think you are thermal throttling. Try if you can put more cool air through the system and see if anything changes.

You can thermal throttle without dust. It happens to me and I clean my PC every week cause I have 3 dogs, and I get shedded hair in it. I stopped the thermal throttling by adding a few fans.
 
But how you would explain that few months ago it was fine and now suddenly even after cleaned it still doesnt give decent fps?
 
Hardware gets old? Everything ages, eventually thing will upgrade, then your stuff will become either torn down, or obsolete.
 
Laptop is not even 2 years old it cant age that fast and problems started few months ago so I doubt hardware ages in 1 year.

You are using a 4 year old processor. Hardware gets old doesn't matter about the laptop. If I went to buy a Dell XPS T600R which is by the way came out in 1999, I won't be getting top performance with it.
 
If the power adapter isn't providing enough power then your video card will suffer because of it. Should get it checked out, either bad power adapter or something else.
