Low performance

[Kaks]

Hello, i have a problem, i have low fps spikes in low end games like for example far cry 3 or league of legends on lowest settings and CPU usage goes way high. I formatted my pc, updated my graphics card drivers and still the same :/
Specs: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.71 GHz
Intel(R) HD Graphics 620
8 GB Ram
64bit system
Windows 10

Welcome to the forum

You sure this is a laptop?

Intel(R) HD Graphics 620

That is very likely the cause. I'm not a hardware guy, someone more knowledgeable should be along soon.

If this isnt something that started happening after you had good performance for a while, I would assume that this is normal for the hardware. Its an 8 year old dual core processor with integrated graphics. Sorry I cant be more helpful.

According to mr google windows 10 needs a minimum of 2gb ram and ideally 4gb ram , this does not take into account anything else that you might have running in the background.

As you only have 8gb to do everything you want to do it could explain why your struggling with games on low settings.

Before you decide which laptop you intend to buy you need to look at the required running spec of games you have or intend buying in the future or you could end up buying a machine that does not meet your requirements.

Have a quick look in your start up menu ( msconfig ) and see if thier are items running from boot up that you dont need , i only have my av and sound card running from boot up.
