I would recommend Arctic Silver 5 on the cheaper side of things, but you can go up to higher quality pastes than that but for a more premium price point. If not comfortable with that then take it to a local computer guy with a good reputation and ask him if he is willing to do it for you for a small fee along with you supplying the paste. Honestly, if you are comfortable taking apart a laptop by watching detailed videos on how to do it then go ahead and repaste the CPU and the GPU with some higher quality paste and you will definitely see a drop in temps. Most likely bad paste application, or clogged fan system. However, if the GPU is still pegging at 88 -92 (92 being max temp before throttling happens) I would recommend you look into that and see what could be causing the high temps. Lowering the settings clearly caused a drop in CPU temps because of the fact that it wasn't hitting the turbo boost as hard which was causing the voltage to not spike up as high which resulted in lower temps.
The lower the better though for the lifespan of the CPU and GPU. Being at around 80 - 85 is as high as I would personally let it go. Staying below 90c will put you at more or less the expected heat output when under a moderate to intense load when gaming for those model laptops from MSI.
