You need to be plugged in to use the more powerful graphics discrete card (1060), unplugged you're using the basic intel hd graphics. If you already are plugged in and suffering frames then it must be thermal throttling. Your laptop is hitting the safe max thermal limits slowing down the CPU and/or GPU to ensure it does not go over that threshold. Many gaming laptops are plagued by this issue. It can slightly help if you run fans @max and get a cooling pad. Some have gone to the extreme and changed the thermal paste of the cpu/gpu to liquid metal and even going as far as seriously mods such as cutting out the chassis to make vents for cooling on their laptops. Another way to bypass this is modding you vbios and settings a higher thermal limit. If you consider doing any of these please do your research and at your own discretion. Also to note, despite having a desktop gpu 1060, it is slightly under-clocked the most average actual desktop versions.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.make sure you are plugged in to power. even tho it is a gaming laptop performance will be cut when not plugged in. Also make sure you are telling the games to use the Nvidia card for gaming and not the Intel card
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Make sure you power options is set to high performance mode, also want to make sure you are overboosting the fan as well. Last thing the 16gb of ram include is 1 stick. I would recommend upgrading to 32gb or replacing and switching to 2x8gb sticks of ram.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.What setting do you have the fans on? On silent mode the laptop will thermal throttle the cpu which will affect gaming performance. Try setting the fan profile to balanced or overboost (if you can deal with the noise).
