    Fps Stuttering/Frame Skipping in Games

    HELLO

    I've been getting the fps stuttering/frame skipping in all the games I play Rainbow Siege Siege, Apex Legends, CSGO, PUBG. I get just a bit over 60 fps in all those games but the stuttering and frame skipping makes it feel like I'm getting 20. Me lowering
    the settings makes no difference. I get about 60-75 degrees on the GPU and CPU when gaming. It happens every time. I have a laptop with:

    MSI GE40 2QD

    Windows 10Home 64bit

    Nvidia GTX 950M 2GB

    8GB RAM

    I7 4712MQ 2.30Ghz-3.30Ghz

    1T HDD / 128GB SSD

    The solutions that I've tried to fix but didn't work:

    High performance in Power Options

    Maximum performance in Nvidia control panel

    Running the games on high priority

    Disabling Game DVR

    CCleaner

    Deleting temps

    Overclocking

    Limiting the minimum and maximum processor state in power options.

    If you have any questions or solutions please respond. THX

    Windows 10 very poor performance and frame skipping issues every second.

    The thing for me is that frame skips or just lags while just moving in BF4,it stutters or something like that,very strange and they said best POSSIBLE gaming experience for windows 10.

    This is a joke...
