I use the Tree New Bee Fan cooler. It's around $20 on amazon and keeps my laptop anywhere from 5-10 degrees cooler, internally.

Oh rip, it's out of stock and no idea when it'll be restocked. Other than having positive reviews, what made me get it was the at 1200 RPM.
I'll spend a couple minutes looking for any other with decent specs, but since I wouldn't have personally tried them, your mileage may vary
Mine does get pretty hot, I am able to keep it somewhat cool using this cooling pad it’s fairly cheap and gets the job done.
Right. But I do agree on your decision in purchasing a pad since it does help lower temps a little bit. Here's what I'm using:
Tree New Bee Cooling Pad for 15.6-17-Inch Laptops with Four 120mm Fans at 1200 RPM, Black (TNB-K0025) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016PMVM7Q/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_5jZiBb7PMPABW
Also, have you tried undervolting it yet?
This is the one I use. Keeps your laptop very cool and 4 fans? You can turn off the top or bottom. Great silent fans..

I'm looking at cooling pads now, what do you think about this one I found on Amazon? Never purchased one of these before so not quite sure what to look for. I assume number of fans and relative quietness?
I'm going to bump this post. I've been using this cooler with my mobile studio for a couple weeks now and it's doing a great job. I had to get a usb c to usb 3.0 adapter for it to work, but that's no issue for me. I'm using this: https://www.amazon.com/Tree-New-Bee-Cooling-15-6/dp/B016PMVM7Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1502835166&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=cooling+pad&psc=1 I can't hear these fans. Literally sitting in starbucks, no one including myself can hear them.
Hope this helps.
82c, the processor or gpu? Use speccy, gpuz/cpuz
Regardless, it is a gaming laptop running a demanding game. On pc's that would normally run it you'd get high temperatures as well and those components have huge heatsinks and cooling fans.
I'd suggest getting something like this if you plan on using that laptop for demanding AAA games and long gaming sessions.

No bullshit, one of those lap trays specifically for laptops with built in fans can improve your temperatures drastically. Most laptops have intake on the bottom, exhaust on the side, so the more cool air you can get in around the base, the better.
Edit: Maybe not that one, after reading reviews sounds like fans are prone to failure. Whatever, shop around, it might just be a gamble with any of those.
That is pretty hot for a laptop. I don't know why they're telling people that it's okay because it's a laptop, that's simply not true. I mean your computer can run at that temperature but it won't last that long. You should look into buying something like this, it's cheap and worth it.
Well, there are three settings for the cooling fans and I have mine set on high, so I’ve technically added noise (though it’s reasonably quiet, even with all 4 fans at full speed, and I don’t notice it when I’m playing games at a normal volume — also they’re muted a bit as they’re underneath the PS4). I haven’t noticed the PS4 Pro sounding like it’s going into overdrive since I’ve started using it either. You could always set them to a lower speed if you like (you have three speed options and can control the left and right sides individually). I bought it from Amazon, and for this product the manufacturer has a 30 day money back guarantee and a year warrantee, so you could try it if you’re on the fence and ship it back if you don’t care for it.
There are other models (this is probably designed to be a laptop cooling pad), but I had seen another redditor link this and the price was cheap enough that I figured I’d give it a try. And I do like that it tilts the PS4 up approximately 10 degrees (with foldable arms on the front of it, giving an inch or two of room for air to circulate underneath and blow outwards from the shelf). In games where my Pro sounds like a jet engine (“RDR2” for example), I’m pretty sure the cooling is making a difference but it could just be confirmation bias. Here’s another model with fans that top out at 1200RPM rather than the 1500RPM that mine does, or this one with 5 fans that push 2500RPM — all three are roughly the same price. Those two don’t have the 30 day guarantee from the manufacturer though, and are subject to Amazon return policies.
Anyhow, hope that helps out. I have my PSVR box sitting on top of my PS4, as well as an 8TB external HD to the left of it, so I’m just happy to be keeping that whole area cool and ventilated.
This is the one I use at the office

You could buy a laptop cooling pad off Amazon. I bought this one for my Lenovo y50-70 and am a happy camper.

I'd imagine just about any notebook cooler would work, but I personally use this one- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016PMVM7Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_1cGiBb6X8BZXM
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016PMVM7Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_tV8rAbZFM7TN0 Do you have one of these? If not I suggest buying one.

Something such as this might be a good option... let me know what you think.
Not sure, but this one seems quite popular? Maybe there are better options as well.
I would go with this one
It should not be required of ANY laptop (and I even hate recommending them), but you might want to take a look at a cooling pad - http://www.amazon.com/Tree-New-Bee-Cooling-15-6/dp/B016PMVM7Q
Have you ever physically cleaned it? Take the back or KB off to clear out the fans?
You might also want to throw Speedfan or another temp monitoring tool on there to see how hot your components are actually getting
