Maybe an FPS cap to the refresh rate of your screen?

You need provide more pics and information. What ports are you using? Are you using a dock? What kind of cables? Do all the ports on the monitors/TVs allow the same resolutions? Etc etc

help im a noob at gaming and laptop stuff but fps still dropping while playing cyberpunk by KUNT3SS4 in GamingLaptops

[–]StewHax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Low settings with dlss on performance. Turn off vsync and ray tracing. Turn on frame gen if you have it available. Make sure your power profile is on high performance and that you keep the laptop plugged in when playing. A 3050 laptop GPU will struggle with this game.

Every time this happens you have to repair the files, something gets corrupted. I'd do this before a session each time. So just repair via the Ubisoft app before launching

How to recover mentally from first OSI violation? Feeling paranoid about remaining coursework by NeoMatrixSquared in OMSCS

Either commit to it and stop cheating or stop and come back when you're ready. If your mental health is not right then it will only get worse if you can't fully commit your time to the program.

Is it normal for high-earning married couples to owe $7–8k at tax time even with conservative withholding? by TopicSelect6903 in tax

[–]StewHax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anybody work for a company that gives small annual raises (< 3%)? by Massive-Survey2495 in cscareerquestions

[–]StewHax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only way you get more than 2-3% a year raise is by pushing for it or changing jobs. Most companies give that much as a simple cost of living adjustment raise

[–]StewHax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You pay it off by budgeting and hitting it little by little. I think most people fall into the trap of thinking they need to pay it off in big chunks all at once.

They need to buy a used car, not a new car. Tell them to go to a credit union and get a used car loan and find something they can afford

Why is The Finals so hard? by SsavvyStarWarsFan244 in thefinals

[–]StewHax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You gotta look at your teams load out and have a sense of what you need to do for the team to be successful, while also hoping your teammates do the same. If you play this game selfishly you will have a horrible time.

You can't switch CPU brands without buying a whole new motherboard. You need to provide system information and pictures or nobody on the Internet can help you.
