Low Fortnite fps even on my gpus recommended settings (high)

[martinsozols8]

So, recently I couldn’t understand - why am I playing on the lowest settings 1080p and still having unwanted fps... I am playing with my laptop plugged in and I have it installed on my ssd AND, from my NVIDIA control panel, I’m using my NVIDIA card to play Fortnite. Any help is appreciated.


My specs: GTX 960M 4GB vram, i5 4210h, 8GB ram

do as many scans until there is no malware left. Then try play games again, you can try 1080p but all other settings low. I have a mate who has msi gaming laptop with 960m and it was hitting well over 100fps constant with everything low 1080p

wow, he must be a lucky guy...

Although he had better cpu, need to see if that is the issue. shknawe is right about it(960m) being mediocre gpu but on low settings it should still run really good

in stats i did my maths and it seems that it should only be a 15 fps difference between my cpu and a quad core one

 

[fagetti]

close everything when you play and try fps. Also go to device manager and press display adapters, do you see there is 960m under that?

 

[martinsozols8]

yes it is there

 

[fagetti]

also did you do multiple scans with both programs and now not any malware left?

 

[martinsozols8]

i am currently doing my first scan with malwarebytes

 

[fagetti]

one scan with malwarebytes is fine if first scan dont find anything
