More FPS with Intel than with AMD gfx?!

Catspin · Apr 25, 2015

Hi, so for the past 2 weeks, I've been getting very low fps in LoL with the AMD gfx card. Today, I switched the gfx card to the Intel and I got more fps. I'm on a laptop with switchable gfx. AMD 6470m + Intel HD 3k. Same thing happens in CSGO and KF,

Well most likely the Intel Gfx is better than the amd one.

Driver issue? Or the gpu clock did not run at full 3d clock causing performance drop

renz496 :

how do I see the clock of the gpu?

Download MSI Afterburner

Connect the charger and enable high performance mode and try again.

You can use third party software like MSI After Burner (which come with rivatuner) to enable On Screen Display while in game to monitor gpu clock, temp, usage and such.

So I checked the clock speeds and I made a small album with the speeds. While gaming and idling. http://imgur.com/a/sYbWz

Is the difference much? A 6470M is pretty comparable to an Intel HD 4000 IGP. It should be just a touch faster, but neither are gaming GPU's.

I should have stated that around 3 weeks/1 month ago I could play the games I said above with no problem. (all around 60-100 fps, minus CSGO - around 40 fps)
Now I barely have 30 fps with everything in minimum.
I know my gfx card isn't that powerful, but it's weird for the performance dropping so much in 3 weeks.

As mentioned above. Download MSI Afterburner and monitor the GPU temps and usage. Monitor the CPU while you are at it. MSI Afterburner allows you to check the CPU now.

Sorry I didn't use MSI Afterburner. I had already installed CPUZ and HWMonitor.

Did you try connecting the charger yet? Laptop batteries are not typically enough to run the hardware at their highest clock speeds, as you can damage the battery if you do turn on high performance without charger connected. Worth a shot!

My laptop is always with charger on and in High Performance.

Install MSI Afterburner. That isn't telling me much, other than the max CPU temps. It's not showing your discrete GPU, because of how the laptop switches between the IGP and dGPU. Use MSI Afterburners OSD so you can monitor while gaming, but at the least, you should be able to see the graph after you log out.

Heere is the MSI OSD. Hope that's what you wanted.

The GPU looks good on that, other than the low usage. Can you check the CPU core temps and usage at the same time?
