HELP! (Game Lag)

[Jukesy88]

Hey guys an gals I need some help!

I bought a gaming laptop a couple months ago. And have only just loaded up my first game “Days are gone”.

I’m getting big problems though, I’ll be playing it an then boom I’ll hit some major lag then it will be fine again. Sometimes it won’t lag at all for 30 mins then it comes on an just won’t stop. I’m not an expert in specs etc so I will link the laptop an maybe you guys can help me or basically tell me the £750 I spent originally was wasted.

thanks I’m advance for any help!

Hi guys thanks for the posts back but I’ve googled this stuff before. I get the same lag when I downloaded Star Wars battlefront. That’s why I’m asking your opinions on my laptops performance versus the requirements of the games?

Is my laptop up to the requirement to play these games??

SI also often experience this, is the brand the cause?
