unstable fps

Does anyone know how to fix this. I capped it at 165 but like every 3-5 seconds it drops to 60fps then goes back up

oh okay that's fine for a laptop i9 u may want to clean install ur gpu drivers
Realify
Realify7mo ago
like uninstall and reinstall?
mythea
mythea7mo ago
since u have nvidia ones, I recommend using DDU it's not clean if u do it through device manager
Realify
Realify7mo ago
so that’ll delete all files and i gotta backup everything that’s the one u meant?
mythea
mythea7mo ago
no, u don't need to backup everything u only need two things, DDU and ur gpu driver installer
mythea
mythea7mo ago
this is the guide if u need
Realify
Realify7mo ago
ah okay, thanks so much! I’ll look into this
mythea

and also, are u experiencing lower than expected performance when not in game? for example when using ur browser, productivity apps or whatever u may also want to check out if there's any malware and programs running at background

oke ill try tht ltr @mythea that didn't rly work also i wanna add that deathmatch is fine fps is stable in deathmatch its just in real usual game wait nvm turning off avast worked why do u think that is
mythea

antivirus takes alot cpu resources to scan ur ram and they may also have conflicts with anticheats u can try other AVs also, like Kaspersky I have heard that Kaspersky is lightweight enough
