    Hi guys this may sound weird but my laptop lags horribly both in apps and games while plugged in. Everything was completely fine until yesterday. Some facts:

    1. I updated NVIDIA driver recently. Tried uninstalling and reinstall with no luck
    2. Power settings have been the same all the time
    3. Power adaptor seems to be working fine
    4. Im using 15 (2015 model) with 4710hq and 980m gtx, 240W adaptor

    Any helps would be sincerely appreciated.
