I recently purchased this laptop with i5-8265U, NVIDIA GeForce MX150 version, and i found a problem on the gaming performance. I was playing fortnite, at 1280x720, everything set at low and at 50% 3D resolution, it sometimes can go up to 60 fps for a short period of time, but most of the time varies between 10 to 30 fps, which is not decent. I found online that laptops with same specs can run alot smoother than this, does anyone know what caused this problem and how to fix it? thx

Note: I already turned on maximum performance in the battery settings, and changed settings so it uses the higher performance graphics card.

I know this is a month long reply but make sure you go into the Nvidia control panel and add fortnite and make it run with the mx150 and on 720p you should get around 80-100 or so fps.
