Sh4nks23

I bought a new acer nitro v15 laptop with ryzen5 and RYX 3050 and 8gb ram like 2-3 months ago my gaming experience have been the same ever since day 1 the laptop gives nice fps but lags a lot the game freeze all the time the frame freeze wasn’t that frequent it will happen like in the start of the game and end after few mins of playing but lately it doesn’t stop and the frame freeze is so much that I can’t play any game.

[Edited the thread to add model name and issue detail to the title]

Hi, 8GB RAM is insufficient for gaming you need at least 16GB, add an 8GB RAM module with the specs. as the module already installed.

Hi Sh4nks23,

Let's try the methods below and check if any of the resolves fixes the issue.

Method 1: Perform SFC Scan and Repair Windows Image
-This process will perform scan for any corrupted system files or integrity violation and will attempt to repair it along with the Windows Image.

1. Open command prompt with administrator access

• sfc /scannow
• DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
• DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
• DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Quick note: While the command is running, it's expected to see the process stuck at 20 or 40 percent. After a few minutes, the process will complete successfully.Once you complete the steps, the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool will connect to the Windows Update servers to download and replace any damaged files in the local image for Windows 10 as necessary.

1. Close the command prompt.

Method 2: Perform Clean Boot

6. Once Hide all Microsoft Services have checked mark on it, click on Disable All
7. Click on the Startup Tab and click open task manager. This will open another window which contains all your startup applications on the administrator account.
8. Disable all application that you're not using. You can simply just click on them and select disable.

3. Right-click HID-compliant mouse and select Update driver
4. Select Search automatically for drivers

I would get it online from the Crucial site, if your full laptop model is: ANV15-41 with DDR4 RAM see this Crucial link: Acer AN515-41 | Memory RAM & SSD Upgrades | Crucial EU keep in mind that the two RAM modules should form a kit (identical modules) so compare the speed and CL of the new 8GB with the module installed, or keep the old RAM as spare and buy a kit from Crucial 2x8GB-3200MHz (16GB) see link.

Also, you should uninstall all bloatware and preinstalled programs on your laptop, Open Task Manager Processes and check the background apps running, f those exceed 70 uninstall or disable the ones you don't need till you get close to 70.
