Laptop FPS problem.

[Brinden]

Im having some FPS issues while gaming with my new laptop. I got an Alienware 15R3 with a GTX 1070, i7-7700hq, and 16 gb of ram. My issue is games run fine when I use a MDP to HDMI to run on an external screen and game, but I travel for work and have to use the built in screen to game frequently and I get really poor fps, for example when I play WoW on an external monitor i get 100-200 fps (depending on location) and in those same areas while playing on the built in monitor I get 15-30 fps. any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Seems like your laptop is trying to use your Intel HD graphics in games, and not your dedicated GTX 1070 GPU instead. Normally you should be able to make it use your dedicated graphics card instead within the 3D settings in your Nvidia control panel.
