Hello,
I have a Lenovo Ideapad Z500 laptop. Bought it in 2013 and till last December it worked perfectly.
Then, one day it refused to turn on and I had it serviced which took two weeks. Turns out the motherboard has experienced an electric short. I received the laptop in somewhat working condition last week. The components are all the same, the BIOS version is the same one I had flashed back in 2014. I tried Cinebench R15 just to make sure the CPU and GPU were working as they used to.
The CPU was just fine scoring 495 points in multi threaded benchmark. The GPU however, rendered the graphics benchmark at around 29 fps. I used to get 48-49 fps in that particular benchmark.
I tried running CSGO and the performance was still not as good as it was before. All games stutter for 5 seconds or so every 10 seconds.
I don't know what to do? Any suggestions on the matter is appreciated. Thanks.
