acer nitro 5 - My GPU isn't performing well for the past week.

So I have the acer nitro 5 with a 1050ti 4gb for more than a year and I love it. It has been working pretty good and I had no complaints until last week. I just got the new cod:mw and it was giving me a stable 45 fps on high settings. I played it for around 2 weeks but then the performance dropped. The frames started to go down for seconds and at some times I would be getting a single frame. I dont know why and it is the same on the lowest settings too. It hasn't affected other games that much but I can notice some lag in csgo or warthunder. Can someone help?

What is the model of your notebook? Example SF315-51-58VH. Also, have you checked the temperatures?

I've just dealt with the same problem from another user with your card, follow my walkthrough below and please click YES if It answers your question

Make sure you do this below and always game on 100% battery BEFORE gaming and KEEP plugged in while gaming, in your Windows Power plan select High Performance when on AC and in Nitrosense make sure High performance is selected under "AC" tab

1. Download and install the latest Nvidia drivers from here
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx.

2. Go to the Nvidia control center and click Manage 3d settings tab, then click the Global Settings tab and change Preferred Graphics processor from Auto select to your Nvidia GPU, do this by clicking the downward arrow to the right of Auto Select and select the Nvidia GPU. Then under the Program Settings tab select the programs and games that you want to run on the Nvidia GPU. Do the same under the Set PhysX Configuration tab
