I Recently bought a brand new Asus Tuf Dash F15 with 11th gen i7 11370h, RTX 3060, 16gb ram 3200hz and 1080p 144hz display.
I've been testing it for a few days and find out that it has a terrible FPS while gaming when I'm using the dedicated nVidia GPU. Games like League of Legends, Valorant, CSGO, can't hold 144 fps and drops down to around 100 fps, and it's very noticeable while game sesions, even worse with the First Person Shooter games. It's pretty funny that those are not very demanding game and the RTX 3060 can barely hold a decent FPS.
The funny part of this is that, no matter which graphics settings I set (LOW, MEDIUM or HIGH, or 720p or 1080p resolution), it does 144 fps for a little while then the FPS drops.
My previous laptop (XPG XENIA) did a pretty solid 144 fps with only 2 or 3 frames drops (in some few situations) with a 9th gen i7, 144hz panel and a GTX 1660ti with the same games and same game's graphic settings, but it could do a solid 144fps.
- I always use a fanless laptop cooling pad , those that do not interfere laptop fans and elevate the laptop over the surface.
- Windows, drivers, bios and ARMOURY CRATE app are up to date (i'm checking everyday if there are new updates)
-Armoury Crate is set to Turbo mode with iGPU disabled. Also tried with Performance Mode.
- nVidia RTX 3060 is set as primary Graphic Card in nVidia settings
- AC is connected all time.
- Temps is always around 70-75° celcius
I noticed that Armoury Crate app shows the GPU never hits 100% of usage (around 60 - 70%) and the CPU is at 100% but it doesn't go any further than 4400hz (Asus claims that the i7 11370H can do 4,8ghz).
Testing in more demanding game like Horizon Zero dawn, My previous laptop could do 55 - 59FPS in Ultra settings and with this laptop is barely doing above 45fps.
i'm pretty concern why a GTX 1660ti and a 9th gen Intel i7 do a better performance than 11th gen Intel i7 wih a RTX 3060? This laptop has two generation newer hardware and it performs worse.
Is there something that i'm missing to check?
