Games Lag ( FPS drops) on my Asus ROG G501JW

[HiImJr]

Specs are GTX 960 4 GB , I7 4720HQ , 12 GB ram , I tried playing AC 4, Far Cry 3 , Even Battlefield Bad Company all on low , and it still lags . Help please

are you playing on battery? or while plugged in? if you're playing on battery then don't expect to get the best performance since the battery cannot full support the hardware since its quite heavy. sorry for the bad english

Try checking what GPU you are using, sometimes it launches the games using the integrated graphics card. To do that, you have to check your Nvidia control panel.
