I've been using this laptop for almost a year now. It comes with 16GB RAM, an i9-13900H CPU from the 13th Gen Intel line, and a 4070 RTX GPU. Recently, I noticed my GPU reaching 100% while gaming, but frames dropped significantly. Before, it ran smoothly without issues. I also don’t play high-demand games. Now I understand that full GPU usage is better for performance, yet my frame rate stays low. I’ve tried resetting the system earlier and it helped, but I don’t want to reset regularly. I’ve looked at other forums and tried some fixes like updating drivers, but nothing seems to work. What options do I have?

Monitor temperatures and time during gameplay. Use MSI Afterburner or HWinfo64 for enhanced monitoring.

Review HWinfo64 to discover the boundaries of your system, since a specific restriction is clearly becoming active

Consider sending a screenshot of your system summary to ensure clarity.

Ensure the "Sensors only" option is selected during HWinfo setup before launching. This displays a comprehensive overview of all sensors and their readings, allowing you to navigate to the GPU section and verify any imposed constraints.

Here’s what you’re seeing now. No worries if it doesn’t match what you expected.

Confirm the details you see in the dropdown for "GPU Performance Limiters." The GPU reports it’s using 590W, which seems unrelated to the problem—this could be another factor affecting performance.

It appears there are constraints in place. What can you try?
