GPU Question G73SW-A1

Hello everyone,

i just got my new laptop asus g73sw-a1 a week ago, from then till today i noticed one thing that When i play games on my laptop such as; Crisis 2, N4S Hot Pursuit, Call of duty black ops While the laptop is on AC Power they work flawlessly no hangs, no glitch, no slowing, i run these games at FULL HD (maximum available) settings they work like charm... BUT when i try to run these games while on battery they do run but not with much performance as on AC power.. (little slowing...and i need to reduce those HD settings from maximum to little lower) is this normal?

thanks

Yes, the system will attempt to save power by working slightly less. I know that there are ways around this but your battery will run out much faster.
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station…

I tried setting it on High everything for Battery and its still bogs down a bit when using batteries playing games...I guess the Battery dont have the stamina to support newer games...
