I have an MSI 2OE laptop:
Specs are:
i7-4800MQ @2.70GHz
Nvidia GeForce GTX 765M/ 2GB GDDR5
8GB RAM

The problem that I'm faced is that after I installed Far Cry 4 on my laptop League of legends FPS have dropped. Now the problem is that FC4 runs smoothly on medium-high graphics and Warthunder on fully maxed quality gives me 40-75 fps on air battles so there's obviously no problem with other video games apart from League which I used to run on 150-180 FPS on full graphics and when capped to 80 it would stay there no matter what. After the installation however of FC4 i get 50 fps when out of combat and 15-20 in battle. The even more peculiar thing is that from max graphics to very low the increase in fps is insignificant...
I reinstalled LoL completely updated nvidia drivers to the most recent run CPU benchmark tests. League I feel is slower to respond in general though it's clearly visible in game.
Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance.

P.S: I have a tourney this weekend so this problem couldn't have come at a worse time

Change that to "Auto" and it will switch between them after it decides what setup is optimal for each situation. Also, I meant get an external hard drive, find the files for the games (steamapps folder -> common) and cut them to the drive to remove them from your PC, then test. Definitely try the Nvidia control panel option first.
You could try reverting to the known good driver for League to see if that fixes it (hope you remember the version number). If that doesn't work, you can try moving the other game files to an external, deleting them from the used drive and seeing if performance improves.
 
The issue did not appear after I updated my drivers it just occurred randomly (only change is the installation of farcry 4)
I did not get what you mean by moving the game files exactly. Could you elaborate?
Also I was just looking around the nvidia control panel and at the 'Set PhysX Configuration' under 3D Settings the laprop display is shown to be the Intel HD Graphics 4600 and not the GTX 765M. Shouldn't it be the other way around?
