Why does my laptop lag when it is plugged in?
I own an Acer Aspire E5-576G laptop, and when I run games without it charging, it runs very fast. However, whenever i plug it in, it suddenly becomes a lot slower and loses frame rates. If I plug it back in, fps suddenly shoots back up and it runs a lot smoother. I have set the maximum proccesing to 99 percent in the battery settings to stop turbo boost as well as turning the "when playing video" in the multimedia settings category to balanced. I have also done a hard reset through the pinhole on the back. I recently upgraded the ram on this laptop so now it has 16gb, but I don't think that is the problem because it runs fast while unplugged. If anyone has any answers to this, please let me know!
