Hello All,
I bought a new MSI Dominator GT60 424 a month or two ago and finally had a chance to take this laptop away with me on an overseas work trip. With that said, I am potentially having an FPS issue with the GTX870m that is on board. Games I have been testing with are WoW (I know WoW isn't too demanding and I had a free trial, so I figured I would see what happens) and Splinter Cell Blacklist. These are just the two games I chose to take a look at. With that said, I am seeing anywhere from 38-48 FPS on WoW on Ultra settings (there are some drops down into the 20s during combat). Just to try and eliminate the Intel onboard graphics from taking over while plugged in, I have changed all of my settings in the Nvidia control panel to use high performance Nvidia gpu. Additionally, I have added the individual games to the priority list under 3d settings. With all this said, am I crazy, or should the 870 be pushing better frames? The laptop is cool and with Cooler boost on, the graphics emits virtually no heat. I am running nvidia driver 340.52.
Thanks
