FPS drops

Hallo fellow ET players,

 

After windows forced me through updates that had to be done when restart my laptop, I suffer from lower fps than i used to have.

I used to be very stable at 90 and some maps even at 125.

After the update, i can hardly get a peak to 90 and it being ''stable'' at 60 and I am even dropping to 35 at some stages.

 

I am currently using a: GeForce GTX 950M graphic card, Intel i7 6500U up to 3.16GHz, 8 GB memory, HDD 1TB +256GB SSD, which should be more than enough to run ET at 90 fps smoothly.

 

I tried to play this game in a lower resolution (1600*900) while my laptop is a 15inch 1920*1080 screen. I even set my monitor reso to 1600*900 before entering ET but that didnt work either.

 

Some people on the server (FA 1) were saying that my cpu or graphic card is probably blocking the game for functioning properly.

I am not a techgeck and barley know all this typo stuff, so that is why im reaching out for help here on the forum.

 

Hoping one of you guys can help me to fix this issues :)

 

Thanks in advance,

 

swixz,=-

 

ps: r_primitives is already at 2

bij mij was het laatst een harde schijf die problemen gaf en toen heb ik ET op een andere geinstalleerd en dat hielp gelijk

I read somewhere that there has been new update that effects (some) intel processor and slows it down drastically. Too tired to search about it, if there is a fix already, but go check from windows update support for a answer if nothing else helps.

Thank you for all the replies! I managed to fix it!! (Hopefully it stays this way lol)

 

During the windows updates, my nvidia setting got set to the highest standards it can get which were causing these fps drops apparently.

Luckily I set it back to a lower level and now im playing 125 steady!

 

Thanks again for your replies
