Precision 3530 Temperature

So, I wanted to know the average temperature range for people with with a precision 3530 i7-8750h / quadro p600 4gb. My issue is that I have to deal with this thing being pretty hot, and I just wanted to make sure that the thermal paste was still good. It's not uncommon for it to peak to 96 to 100 C, and I know that Dell uses pretty meh paste. Currently I have it set up to throttle down pretty hard if I'm not doing anything. If anyone has an idea of what idle / peak looks like, let me know. 

Would changing the thermal paste void my warranty? I've done so frequently with other rigs, and I'm not uncomfortable with doing so, but I wouldn't want to risk that. This thing is quite toasty, so if I could drop it by 5-10c and get extra boost-clock performance, I would be really happy.
