    my pc is underpefroming
    « on: August 16, 2017, 09:08:56 AM »
    Hi guys,

    I don't know if I'm posting this in the right place but I've had this problem for a while now. When I first got my MSI ge72 apache I had no problems with it. I capped League Of Legends on 120fps while I could play another game in the background, use discord and listen to music with no problems. For quite a while now it hasn't been perfoming anywhere near that. I barely get 60fps on League and have to make sure everything else is turned off. If I try to listen to music while playing the music cracks. I can't play games like pubg without the screen freezing for a second when I switch weapons or am in the redzone for example (this is with all graphics turned down). I feel like this shouldn't be a problem with a pc this expensive definetly since it worked way better at first. I've checked and I'm on best performance for every game and I'm not on battery saver.

    Yesterday I checked my perfomance and task manager while playing League and using discord.
    Performance:
    cpu: 13%
    dgpu: 0%
    memory: 70%
    battery: 93%
    disk: 0%

    in task manager League was the only thing noteworthy with 5% cou and 960mb memory. the temperatures of my dgpu and cpu were 60 and 72 degrees celcius respectively.

    Mark.

    Is this laptop running Windows 10?

    Microsoft has been making a mess of peoples systems with driver replacements for Windows 10, and I can see what you have for symptoms being related to a wrong driver for the GPU possibly.

    Go to nvidia website and download and install latest driver for this.
