Hello, I wonder if anyone can answer a question I have. I recently received a laptop with the specs that I post below, and it seems to struggle with the games I play rather a lot. I find this odd considering the specs aren't exactly bottom end, nor are they top end but should be able to play the games I play easy enough. Also considering it struggles more than a 5 year old MSI with inferior components.
I have so far tried it on Total War: Warhammer 2 , Three Kingdoms, and Shogun 2 and regardless of the graphics settings the fps tends to hover around 10 most times. I know these games can be intensive but even an old laptop of mine performed better than this. Can anyone think of why?
The games themselves, as well as Geforce experience all automatically put the settings at their highest because in theory the laptop should handle it.
Thanks.
