Low FPS in games on my ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15

[Yungsinatra]

I get pretty low fps (130-160) in my matches in Valorant, which is less than I expected given the specs that I have (I have the GA502IV model, which has ryzen 9 4900hs and rtx 2060 maxq).

I did all of the fixes suggested in /r/ZephyrusG15 (except the vent mod), and there is no thermal throttling that can be observed (my temps when running Valorant are around 76-82).

Here is the things I've checked till now:

• the game is running on the dedicated gpu
• the laptop is plugged in
• it's set to performance mode (which is the high performance power mode)
• all video settings in Valorant are set to low -running in fullscreen mode
• all ASUS bloatware not installed
• full screen optimizations are set to on
• processor performance boost mode is set to "Efficient Aggressive"
• All drivers are updated
• Running latest BIOS and Windows version

I'm not sure what else I am supposed to do to increase my FPS. Could there be an issue with the laptop itself?

Check that your Nvidia 3D settings (in the Nvidia control panel) are set to use your GPU and not your integrated graphics.

Yes, I have forced Valorant to use the RTX Gpu in Nvidia Control Panel.

What if I don't have one? My laptop monitor is 240hz and this is one of the reasons I bought it for..
