    Hello,

    I have this laptop ( MSI Notebook Official Website | G Series - GT683R-242US Gaming Notebook / Laptop) for some time (Can be year and half or so) and never had any problem with that. Performance was good same as cooling. But a few last days, I noticed significant reduction of performance and the growth of heat. It´s impossible play even casual games (Used to play games like BF3/4 without problem) with no demand on GPU and system itself is laggy. In some games, everywthing works fine for 5 mins, then 2 mins of laggs and reduction of FPS and then again 5 mink alright..... Work in word and other applications is almost impposible due to laggs and waiting too.

    Do you think it can be problem with cooling? GPU has around 60 Celsius in calm and 100 Celsius while I´m playing (trying to play) something. Or can be problem only with software? Should I reinstal Windows?


    Thanks for any help!

    When was the last time you cleaned the heatsink.
