Hey all, I know you get a lot of these (i know this because im constantly looking for a solution). To get on with the problem though, most of my games have major FPS problems even though I know i should be able to run them (i know this because my friend has the EXACT computer that i have and he runs them just fine.

Some of the games I have problems with are:

Payday 2
Dota 2
CS:GO
PSO2


Here are some of my specs tell me if you need more:

Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GT 650M
RAM: 8 Gigs DDR5
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3720QM CPU @ 2.60GHz (8 CPUS), 2.6GHz

Its also a laptop, Mac Book Pro to be exact

Thanks for your help in advance!

I think i found the problem.

My computer goes up to 90-100 degrees when playing games so i think its some kind of overheating problem (possible dust in the fan or need to re-apply thermal paste)

But if anyone else has any solutions im always up for suggestions!
