Hey there guys. I have an Asus UX51VZ-US71T. 650M Nvidia GDDR5

The Issue I am having is universal with all games. I have great FPS and then suddenly it will drop from 60+ frames to about 10 or 15, and only stays at these low frames for about half a second. The highest temps recording according to Open Hardware Monitor is 165.2 degrees F, so I don't think it's due to the temperatures. I do have nVidia experience installed with the latest driver 344.75.

Thank you for the help, I greatly appreciate it!

Welcome to the forum!

First thing I would try is uninstall Experience and see how it works. Don't know if you can get away with just exiting it or killing in Task Manager.

I have not noticed a difference after quitting nVidia experience. I do also get Screen Tearing really bad on some games. I read that it is related to not having vertical sync on. I do not want vertical sync on as it drops frames and causes input lag. Is there a way to limit frames to say 60 FPS?
