Hey guys, the GPU on my laptop is supposed to run at 1030 MHz, but in the game it only hits 700 MHz. I don’t know why that’s happening—even with the combo box enabled, it’s not that hard to play games, just not very smooth.

The laptop likely dates from 2015 to 2018, possibly 2018 or earlier. Its CPU and GPU temperatures are at least five years old. You haven’t opened it to clear or repaste the components.

They replaced the M330 with a chip featuring greater VRAM and upgraded the firmware to a 4GB version.

Consider starting Unigine Heaven with a resolution around 640x480 in windowed mode. Use GPU-Z to monitor performance and watch the clock speed. Alternatively, try MSI afterburner for better tracking. It might also be due to your laptop's manufacturer restrictions to prevent overheating.
