So I have the Predator Helios 300. While playing some games my screen suddenly froze and the sound kept playing. Then the screen turned black. After the computer turned back on I realized while playing my games the FPS have dropped a lot.

Examples:
________________________________________________________
- Fortnite on high: 100+ FPS
- Fortnite after the crash (High): 22 FPS (At Max)
________________________________________________________
- CS:GO on high: 100+ FPS
- CS:GO after the crash (High): 15-25 FPS
________________________________________________________

Is there any way to fix this? Ill take any suggestions thanks.

    Check your nvidia drivers. Try restarting and see if it auto fixes.

    I have restarted my Nvidia Drivers plus my computer, it is not fixing by itself. Will it fix over time or?

    Nevermind I looked at my drivers and it says that one of them has stopped working. I think I can turn it on again so once I do and its resolved I will accept

    If it doesn't, uninstall and install again.

    Definitely install the newest driver NVIDIA has now and also always make sure the game is running through the 1060 not the onboard graphics. Seems like an easy fix
