The issue of reduced frame rates across multiple games has been addressed.
My gaming performance is consistently poor, regardless of the game I play. Despite my efforts to resolve this issue, I haven't been able to find a solution. I’m struggling to smoothly play even basic titles like GTA. Here are my system specifications: Intel Core i7-8750H processor at 2.20 GHz, 16 GB of memory, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 utilizing Max-Q design, running on Windows 10.
It's worth investigating whether the original poster is utilizing a traditional hard disk drive initially. Although defragmentation can improve performance on HDDs when files become scattered, it has no effect on solid-state drives and can actually shorten their lifespan. Considering the system's configuration, there’s a strong possibility it employs an SSD for booting or at least for the Windows 10 operating system. Windows 10 automatically defragments HDDs and performs TRIM operations on SSDs to maintain optimal performance.
How often do you defragment your drive? Doing this regularly can be very beneficial.
Considering the processor’s role, could this be a portable device?
If so, have you attempted to track the heat levels during gameplay to see if there’s any evidence of temperature limitations?
Could you please specify the manufacturer and model number of your system?
Has this problem started happening recently, or has it been present since the initial setup?

My laptop did not work with Windows 10; it required manual defragmentation.
Does it? Certainly, if others haven't deactivated it. The standard schedule is weekly, though this can be adjusted to daily or monthly intervals. It's also possible to execute it manually. Furthermore, based on a discussion online, you are using Windows 8.1.
My computer utilizes a solid-state drive for its core functions, while a traditional hard disk drive is used to hold my game files.
The method for determining its heat levels isn't clear to me, and the surface feels remarkably warm. I own a Dell G7 Gaming laptop. This issue has persisted since its initial release, though it’s been ongoing for some time – approximately summer of 2019.
