If were me, I'd wipe the OS and start over.Įnsuring to block many of those useless OS updates via Windows Update that are those Monthly Hotfix variants for starters. Turn down useless needs like shadow distance and quality, as well as anti-aliasing since gaining the visuals from anti-aliasing is much more suited for higher end GPUs typically. Then from there, tweak the settings down slightly in various areas which can help boost performance, at very little visual losses overall, such as perhaps if a game has a very high draw distance available, turn that down some. Best bet is always pick the Native Resolution and then the highest visual preset and apply. As you generally will simply not gain a huge FPS boost from choosing a Low Visual Preset within most games. Overall, the FPS differences between Low vs High visual presets is not a big issue really those will often not differ much at all, if the GPU is decent enough. Also there are a few other KB# Updates that may also be responsible for various system wide performance issues as well. Win7 has become garbage in relation to overall performance also after all these months of useless hotfixes many systems I've laid hands on with Win7 in about the last year or so also saw many issues arise simply because of these ridiculous updates the OS doesn't really even need. I outruled temperature, drivers, RAM issues, battery settings to max performance, vsyncing, faulty settings, games not running on the designated gpu instead of integrated (hd intel graphics), unparked all cpu cores, overclocked the card slightly to see if there are any changes, thermal paste, cleaned out the vents of the laptop, original adapter so no lack of voltage, running windows 7 so no xbox settings to disable.ġ6,0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 798MHz (11-11-11-28)Īlgemeen PnP-beeldscherm HD Graphics 4600 (CLEVO/KAPOK Computer)ģ072MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M (CLEVO/KAPOK Computer) 59 ☌ġ11GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO M.2 120GB ATA Device (SATA (SSD)) 37 ☌Īny advice would help/suffice, or am I simply dealing with outdated hardware here?

However, my FPS seems to cap at around 55-60 in both games, cpu and gpu temperatures even out around 70c and I have done clean installations on both drivers.

I'm unsure about the specifics but i'm quite certain that my specs are supposed to have little to no issue running games like Rocket League and World of Warcraft on lowest settings.
