Why does my acer nitro 5 keep on getting frame drops?

jayjay17 · February 2022

Whenever i start playing fortnite my game runs perfectly for like the first 15-20 minutes or so but after that it randomly just starts to drop frames it goes from 240 all the way down to like 60-30 and then my game completely freezes and i have to restart it over and over. ive had this laptop for less than a year and ive never had this problem until about 2 weeks ago. Ive done a lot to try finding a solution such as using a cooling pad, putting it on high performance, updating all my drivers and i even tried using a physical fan to get air flowing through the vents on the back of the laptop. None of that stopped it from dropping fps and i know it can’t be my specs because i have a GTX 2060, 16gb ram with an intel core i7 processor. this is an urgent matter so i would really appreciate it if anyone could help me.

Check if your CPU/GPU Temperatures are going more than 90°C?
You can monitor realtime Temperature using msi afterburner

Use msi afterburner to monitor temperatures while gaming.
And you said "my game runs perfectly for like the first 15-20 minute"
Possible that your system start overheating after 20min
