Hello there ,
So Ive owned this Alienware R3 13 for about a year now with constant use. When I first got it the temps would always be around 90-99 while playing games without any FPS drops . I do realize that this is a bit on the hot side but I asked on the forum a while ago and people said it was normal for a laptop. Anyway so even when it was at those temps it never used to have any FPS drops , games were smooth , but recently (around 3 weeks now) its been having really bad FPS drops on almost every game I play (Fortnite , Valorant , CSGO) I used to play fortnite on a solid 120FPS and now it dips to 2-5FPS in irregular intervals its just random .
I was wondering if there was maybe a update that I installed that is conflicting with the system in order for these FPS drops to happen and maybe if a format of the laptop would be any help ?
Any help would be much appreciated . Thank you
