Hi guys,

I don't know if I'm posting this in the right place but I've had this problem for a while now. When I first got my MSI ge72 apache I had no problems with it. I CAPPED League Of Legends on 120fps while I could play another game in the background, use discord and listen to music with no problems. For quite a while now it hasn't been perfoming anywhere near that. I barely get 60fps on League and have to make sure everything else is turned off. If I try to listen to music while playing the music cracks. I can't play games like pubg without the screen freezing for a second when I switch weapons or am in the redzone for example (this is with all graphics turned down). I FEEL like this shouldn't be a problem with a pc this expensive definetly SINCE it worked way better at first. I've checked and I'm on best performance for every game and I'm not on battery saver.

Yesterday I checked my perfomance and task manager while playing League and using discord.
Performance:
cpu: 13%
dgpu: 0%
memory: 70%
battery: 93%
disk: 0%

in task manager League was the only thing noteworthy with 5% COU and 960mb memory. the temperatures of my dgpu and cpu were 60 and 72 degrees celcius respectively.what sort of maintenance have you performed?Is this laptop running Windows 10?

MICROSOFT has been making a mess of peoples systems with driver replacements for Windows 10, and I can see what you have for symptoms being related to a wrong driver for the GPU possibly.

Go to nvidia website and download and install latest driver for this.Actually Dave with laptops it's best to use the laptop manuf. GPU drivers...not nVidia's...
