MSI Afterburner Monitoring
1. Counter-Strike : Global Offensive:
2. Sleeping Dogs:
GPU1: AMD 8730M
GPU2: Intel HD 4000
Note: Both the games are using all 4 CPU cores. I was just not monitoring them at the time in Counter Strike.
Facts and observations
1. CPU and GPU not fully utilized.
2. FPS stays around 20 - 25 in every game.
3. Temperatures are normal.
4. All the drivers including Graphics, BIOS and Chipset are up to date.
5. Wiping the hard disk and re-installing the windows did not solved the problem.
6. I have finished many games till the end without any noticeable lags before.
7. I do not remember exactly when it started happening, I did not fixed this because I thought a hard reset will definitely fix it and I was just not ready to back up and do this to my 1 TB hard disk. Finally, after around 1.5 years I did it but it did not got fixed.
8. Laptop is on high performance mode both in Power settings and AMD Radeon settings.
9. All the games are being monitored on the lowest settings at 720p resolution. Earlier I could run them on Medium settings at 1080p resolution. I did not monitored framerate before becasue it was playing just fine.
