Hey guys so like the title says I'm experiencing some fps drop when playing games on my laptop regardless of how demanding the game is. I have been monitoring fps while playing games and noticed a pause in gameplay, it turns out this is a stark fps drop from whatever the game was playing at (usually pretty high) down to like 45-50fps which creates a lag like feeling (frametime variance?) the laptop I have is a powerspec 1710 which has a 7700 h q and a GTX 1070 these happen for reasons that appear random as far as I can tell and are always less than a second but its definitely an issue.

i dont think this is temp related cpu doesnt go aboce 75 and same for gpu.

 

I have used geforce experience to upgrade the videocard drivers, does not appear to have made a difference.

 

im considering reformatting but unsure if it will help and would like further input before i put the time in to redownload all of the updates

Any input on this would be great also should I bring the computer back to Microcenter I have a two year warranty from the on it?

Has it done this since you first got the laptop or is it a recent issue that has come up?

this has been a day 1 issue but i thought it was isolated to just to a few select games, upon recent testing my desktop struggles on at least one of these titles so im gonna assume poor optimization (its also a new game) my desktop has a 1700x with a 980 in it, but other games the desktop has no issue where the laptop has issues.
