Hi, I'm using an ASUS X571GT laptop.
It has an i5-8300H processor, GTX 1650 graphics, and runs Windows 10 with the latest drivers.
It's been working fine for a year now, but recently I've noticed significant drops in frame rates across all games—League of Legends, Rogue Company (from 80 to 10 FPS), and PUBG. I can't maintain stable 60 FPS in almost any game.
I've done a user benchmark, and here are the results: Asus VivoBook_ASUSLaptop X571GT Performance Results - UserBenchmark
Welcome to the forums, newcomer! Please verify if your laptop requires any BIOS updates. I'm unable to access Asus's support page for your device because it seems to be loading issues (possibly due to site maintenance). You mentioned using Windows 10—what version of the operating system are you running? Regarding your platform, consider using DDU to remove your platform's GPU drivers, then manually reinstall the driver from the latest source on Nvidia's support site. When installing, right-click the installer and select Run as Administrator.
launch the task manager to view active applications and resource usage including CPU, GPU, RAM, disk, and network activity.
Thank you for your reply.
This is the link to drivers on the ASUS support page.
I found two options and I’m unsure which one to choose.
Update: I discovered that my BIOS version is 311 (the most recent on the ASUS support page), so I probably don’t need an update.
I’m using Windows 10 Home single language version 21H2.
Do you have any guidance on how to use DDU to remove platform GPU drivers?
Thank you in advance.
I have already checked and confirmed there is nothing suspicious there!
The reasons behind this problem are hard to identify, since many factors could be involved.
Some time ago, I experienced the same challenge. The solution for me was adjusting my Windows power settings from Balanced to High Performance.
Balanced affects voltage and can alter the clock speed of certain hardware components, leading to performance fluctuations.
Overclocking also has this effect, whether it's manual or through Intel's turbo boost. If you're doing custom overclocking, ensure it's done correctly or disable it.
For CPUs with built-in turbo features (like factory overclocking), consider disabling that as well if the problem continues after changing power settings.
If none of these steps help, temporarily disable your anti-virus software and Windows Game Mode to check if they contribute to the issue. If that doesn't resolve it, you may need to investigate further.
insert the charger or adjust the power setting to high performance
