Something interesting I found out

[silverteeth]

Yesterday I made a post explaining how my fps in games were lower for some reason and thought it was the drivers.  However, today I noticed that my screen brightness seemed pretty low, so I turned it up and huzzah!  Now I'm getting 150+ fps on Minecraft and 60+ on BF4.

 

I have no clue as to exactly why increasing screen brightness (on a laptop at least, don't have a gaming desktop) increases fps, maybe because it uses more performance from the GPU? I have no clue as to why this is a "fix."

 

Is this already a well known way to increase performance on a gaming laptop or no?  I just thought I would share this.

Check your power settings, make sure everything is set to high performance.
