Hey guys, so my Acer Nitro 5 (AN515-57-51NV) is acting up. When a game starts, the laptop's graphics card usage jumps straight to 99%, the fan gets very loud, and the frame rate stays low for all games. I've already tried running a tool called DDU after restarting, but the problem is still there. Anyone have any suggestions?

what are the computer's temperatures when playing a game, how much memory is in use, and what about the hard drive?
