I attempted to play Crysis 3 on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 7577) without a power source, but I received around 15 frames per second with very slow fan speeds despite having max performance enabled. Once I connected the charger, frame rates improved to 60-70 and fans accelerated. Please help.

No, you can't run games at full performance while using the lowest battery level.

Adjust the options in Power Management. Why? It might let you use less than an hour before the battery dies.

He claimed to have completed it before, but it didn’t work. @Yash Atwal if you really want to play on battery, you should definitely invest in a big power bank so you can enjoy gaming anywhere.

Modern laptops like the Asus X73V face typical power constraints. It seems the battery performance limits frame rates to 30fps, even when running smoothly at 35+ on wired connections. This issue probably stems from the battery technology itself.

Consider using integrated graphics powered by battery power. You can adjust this setting within the Nvidia control panel. Be prepared for significantly reduced battery endurance on the dedicated GPU.

It's not me, I've confirmed that issue. The problem lies with the battery's capacity—it can't supply enough power for the CPU and GPU to operate at full speed.
