Hello ! 

I need help , my main system for pc gaming is my laptop , an MSI GE60 2PE 242FR , I use it everyday for school and gaming and everything else ... in normal usage ( browsing the web , virtual machines etc ...) it has no problems whatsoever . But when gaming I have fps drops in certain zones in games or games that never run at more than 30 fps ( even less sometimes) for exemple I'm replaying Bioshock Infinite when I ran the benchmark tool it came with I got an average of 40 Fps on ultra settings and 60 fps on very high settings ... so I set the game on very high but it doesn't run really smoothly my laptop has like "hiccups" in some large zones my FPS drops sometimes ( most of the time while in combat which is annoying) . Bioshock isn't the only game that does this Skyrim , Diablo 3 , Fallout 4 ( I never got it to run smoothly) and many other games ... they all have fps drops or don't run smoothly even on low settings . I am always moving so buying a desktop isn't a solution ... can't really buy a new laptop too . 

I am running Windows 10 Home 

Cpu : i7 4720hq 2.60 GHz

Gpu : GTX 860M 2GB

Ram : 12GB 1333Mhz 

I have the stock 7200rpm 1tb hdd

 

edit: I did all the Windows 10 updates and Nvidia drivers are up to date too
