Recently upgrade my Vaio laptop to a SSD, so I had to do a clean install of everything. Prior I was getting stable 170FPS in CSGO. I had Wins 10 prior, and decided to downgrade to Win 7. And now I'm lucky to get 40FPS have all the same autoexec configs.

So new SSD, Fresh install of Win 7.
-Win 7 up to date.
-All of my driver are up to date. (Which could be the issue ?)
-Cores are all unparked.
-Completely cleaned inside of laptop when I put in the new SSD.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Specs:
CPU: I7-3520M
GPU: Intel HD 4000 with Nvidia GeForce GT 640 LE (1GB)
Ram: 12GB DDR3/1333Mhz
SSD: PNY CS2211 480GB sata III
OS: Wins 7 Prem. 64bit

Did you download all the drivers from SONY or from windows?

What screen resolution did you end up with ?

With a fresh install you would have picked up new video settings in your games, and games would have selected the best eye-candy that gives 30-60 fps, they would not have selected anything that gives a stable 170FPS because that creates 2 frames that are not displayed for every one your "i can only display 60 per second" panel displays.

Suggest you go to http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-640M-LE.72199.0.html and see if you can find a game they benchmarked with your video card that you own. Compare the setting, then compare FPS. See if you have an actual major problem, or jsut lower frame rate from lower settings...

Then google "youtube GeForce GT 640 LE csgo" to see people's video.

p.s. suspect you meant Nvidia GeForce GT 640M LE (1GB) <-- the M is important.
