Hey, what game mode are you looking for to make your frames go up to sixty?
Hey, what game mode are you looking for to make your frames go up to sixty?
Hey guys, basically my main question here is about my laptop. It's a Lenovo with an i7 8th gen processor, 20 gigabytes of RAM, and an Intel UHD graphics card. I've tried using the lowest settings possible and watching tons of YouTube videos to boost frame rates up to 60 FPS, but even my highest settings only get me to 30 FPS. I know that this hardware won't do great gaming, so I guess I'm not going to have high-quality games, but it should definitely be faster than what I'm seeing right now.
It's weird because Task Manager shows my CPU running at 1.8 GHz, which is the speed it's currently set to. I think this might be why it feels slow, though that number could be wrong too. I've thought about trying to overclock it just in case, but I don't really know how to do that so I won't bother. If anyone has any tips or tricks on what else I can try to make 60 FPS happen, that would be super helpful thanks!
Well if you aren't doing anything heavy on your computer while looking at Task Manager, then seeing low CPU speeds is normal. You have to be running a game or doing something really hard to see the CPU speed go up. I don't fully trust Task Manager for this either because it's not always very accurate. You can try AMD FSR; it might be an option in your display or graphics settings, but the GTX 1650 Ti might not get enough frames per second for that game. It's a pretty tough game for that card anyway. Good Luck!
I'm trying that fsr stuff out. Is there any better software than task manager for checking performance? I've heard it's not great before too. Would overclocking help with how the game runs? I don't really know much about it, but since warzones is pretty CPU-heavy, I guess it might make a difference.
You probably don't need to overclock your graphics card much, but maybe you can with the CPU on that laptop. In general, I would suggest not doing it because laptops get really hot and fast if you do anything extreme. If you are using Windows 10 or 11, there is a way to see how things are performing in games. For Windows 10, you likely have to turn on the Game Bar. For Windows 11, the Game Bar works most of the time even when it's turned off. If you need to use it and start typing "G" while holding down the Windows key to bring up your Start menu, a popup will show up at the top showing an icon that looks like a computer screen. When you hover over that icon and click it, it should open a window with tabs for CPU usage, RAM, VRAM, GPU performance, and your frames per second (FPS). You can change how the numbers look or which ones are visible if you want. If you want this to stay up in your game without closing everything else, click the small round button on the top right of that window so it stays open on top. Sometimes you might have to give it permission to show FPS data, and I even had a time where it tried to restart Windows when I first used it. If you installed NVIDIA GeForce Experience, they probably have an option there too if you remember how to find it or turn it on.
