temperature of gpu and processor

hello. what is the normal temperature of video cards and processor in games? I recently bought an msi alpha 15 a3ddk laptop and when playing apex legends at high settings, the temperature of gpu1 is from 75° to 85° (gpu2 does not rise above 75°). but when playing dishonored 2 on ultra settings, the gpu1 temperature reaches 90-91°. is this normal?

It depends on the laptop thermal settings. If it gets too hot the laptop will throttle down to prevent overheating. It's best to have a decent laptop cooling pad.

and how long can it last under this load? I'm afraid this could reduce its service life and harm it

A good laptop cooling fan/pad can lower temps 5c -10c and should be used if you are a hardcore gamer.
