Hi, I am using a Lenovo Yoga 3 laptop with a 4gb ram i7 and nvidia 940m.
i am having trouble with my fps on games like dota2 or cs:go and stuff while my friends are having no problem using his 840m!
That s made me curious how to increase my fps
well his laptop is 720p while mine is 1080p
i,ve tried to change my 3d application setting to maxium performance
changing pyhcx setting to 940m
what should i do
 
Solution
You are running at a higher resolution...so the fps will drop. If you run the game at 720p instead of 1080p you'll see that your fps is higher than your friend's laptop.

are u running the game on your laptop native resolution?drop the game res to 720p and see how it fair.also whats his laptop model?he might have a better cpu/more ram than yours.also take note that his game is running at 720p so its less taxing on the gpu.

i could only get around 45-60 fps on dota 2 (lowest setting) in 1080p while he could get around 100 fps on dota 2 lowest setting in 720p
is that possible ??
Note: i once ever got 100 fps to on lowest setting dota 2 but my laptop have been formatted and since then it never get those fps, i supposed the game has updated but i dont think that's the issue
