Question Elden Ring runs terribly on my laptop ?

Laptop Model: Asus ROG Zephyrus G16

I tried playing Elden Ring on my laptop and it performs terrible. I get around 45fps and my cpu and gpu don't go above 20% usage. I've checked if its using the Nvidia gpu and it is. I've set it to performance mode in windows and the temps are fine. Is this just bad optimization in Elden Ring or is there an issue with my laptop? Any suggestions on something else i can try are appreciated. Thanks

Hey there,

Which exact model, as there are variations in components? The game doesn't seem to have particularly high requirements.

Are all system drivers and GPU driver up to date? Have you tried uninstalling the GPU driver with DDU and then reinstalling fresh?

What bios are you currently running on the laptop? You can use CPU-z and the mainboard tab to find this info.

AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 GeForce RTX 4070 32gb lpddr5x. The bios is up to date i havent tried a fresh driver install though. But i don't think it'll work since i have no issues in other games i've tested.

Ah, right, so it's only one game!?

Yes, it would seem it's not greatly optimized.

Have you tried setting power management mode in NVCP to prefer maximum performance?
