1660ti clock speed is very low while gaming helios 300

DemFrogs

Hello, my 1660ti on helios 300 is running around 500mhz-700mhz while gaming, games that are supposed to run at 80 fps are running at 25 fps, cant play any demanding game.
note: gpu is running at 87-89c and when i unplug the laptop the clock speed is around 1250-1350mhz. Sometimes when i tab out and go back in the clock speed sits around 1500mhz for a minute

That's really high temperature for the GPU. It throttles at around 80-85C. The reason you get higher clock speed when the laptop is on battery is it uses less power so less throttle. If the laptop is still in warranty, you can contact Acer for cleaning and replace thermal paste. Or else, you can take the laptop apart by yourself or bring it to a computer shop and let them do it for you.
