Hi all, I am currently using an Acer Aspire 5 with the MX 250. I noticed my FPS keeps dropping in-game (League of Legends), so I tried a couple of fixes that I found online:
- Going to NVIDIA Control Panel and making sure all global settings use the High Performance Processor
- Manually setting programs to use the High Performance Processor
- Going to Graphics Settings in the control panel and adding each program manually to use high performance
- PhysX set to MX250
- Lowering all my in-game graphic settings to minimal, capping FPS at 60
However, when I downloaded the NVIDIA Optimus GPU State Viewer (to check if my GPU is actually being engaged), it still shows the GPU as "Idle" while I'm in-game. Sometimes it switches on for a second, and then it switches off again.
My FPS keeps dropping and being inconsistent in-game. GPU activity under Task Manager also shows a low rate of utilization in game (~2% - 10%, most of the time 0%) Can somebody help please? This is very frustrating. Thanks in advance.
