Can the processor run at high temperatures for a long time?

There is a laptop processor ryzen 5 3550h and it can have a maximum temperature of 105 degrees.
I do not allow it to heat up to 90 degrees, because. dumb, but enough for me to play games. Using the ryzen controller, I specify the maximum temperature for the processor, and the program then tells the BIOS what to do.
In heavy games, I set the maximum temperature to 75-85 degrees (in the same witcher at high settings, the difference in performance between 80 and 85 is not very big, so I try to set smaller values). If I play light games, then I can set the maximum temperature to 75 (although not in all games it heats up to such temperatures).
The laptop is new, I'm not going to change the thermal paste yet, it seems normal.
I'm wondering if it's normal for a PC that I change the maximum temperature of the processor very often?
Will there be anything with the computer if the percentage for several hours will be with 80 degrees?

There is no point in constantly changing the maximum temperature, as well as harm. It is enough to set the limit of degrees to 90 and not remember anymore.
Unless the cooler can be annoying under load, then you can make 2 profiles, one for games at 90 and the second for office work, focusing on the noise of the cooler, at what temperature it does not bother you yet.

No, it will not.
80, in principle, is not such a critical temperature, but anything higher can already very significantly affect the service life of the device.
Try to make the processor (and the video card too) undervolt. You can almost always cut 5-10 degrees. Reducing the voltage, unlike increasing it, will not lead to anything worse than a bsod or a video driver crash.
Regarding the thermal paste. Consumer trash is put into laptops, replacing it with kryonaut is almost always minus a dozen. But here it is better to wait until the warranty expires of course.
