    Hello, everyone! I recently took this laptop. In some games like, CS GO, SC2, Crysis, Batman Arkham City, my GPU, gpu doesn't scale properly. In SC2, the gpu go between 38 and 60 procent, and may fps between 50 and 130, no matter what settings I have chosen . The same is at the others games. Crysis , gpu go between 42 and 80 procent, and may fps between 44 and 160. The others games like, Tomb Raider, Raise of the Tomb Raider, The Evil Within, Metro 2033 Redux, is perfectly ok. The gpu is about 97-99. In the benchmarks, I get good results and the gpu is ok. Temperatures on the GPU and the CPU are fine. I use Grizzly Kryonaut, for thermal paste.

    That's all I've tried so far:

    1. In Nvidia Contol panel, i set Power Managamet mode on Prefer maximum Power.
    2. Vertical Sync is OFF
    3. Game DVR is Disable
    4. I tried with old drivers
    5. Remove MSI Dragon Center
    6. Remove Nahimic audio software
    7. New Windows [Windows 10]

    Оther suggestions ?

    I'm going to guess you have a model with 1 stick of RAM. You'll need to add a second to get it to run at full speed.

    Oh, sorry. I had the exact same issue but I had a 1x16GB model and it went away when I put another 16GB in. I'm not sure of any other causes.

    What RAM did you bought?. I have an MSI GE73VR 7RF.

    I want to add a second 16GB DDR4 RAM Stick as well as another M.2 SSD NMVE in the second M.2 port (500/512gb), please, give me recommendations.
