    Acer Predator - DX 10 - GTA - technically these are bad parameters to compare.

    Let me give you a better perspective - his laptop is better optimized than yours, and this could be more than just one factor, along with the settings in games.

    1. Disable all unwanted services - like search, superfetch, etc.
    2. Disabling "fast startup" option under power settings.
    3. Turn on vsync in game, and set FPS to the max Hz permitted by your screen. On a 60 Hz, any FPS over 60 on puts load on CPU/GPU but makes no difference visually.
    4. Use ThrottleStop/MSI afterburner and such to help run your laptop cooler; this in turn helps increase performance.
    5. In the game graphics, disable the settings that put more load on CPU/GPU compared to the aesthetics they add. One such thing is long distance shadows. Another is motion blur for me.

    Try these out and let us know your findings on your rig.
