    High FPS background and low FPS when tabbed in

    I recently reset my entire PC and after installing, of what I believe to be, all drivers, windows updates and some games, I am now experiencing the issue above.

    When I am tabbed into a game, my CPU and GPU are barely being used and my FPS is below 15, as if my computer believes it’s in the background.

    But when I’m tabbed out of my game, into let’s say Discord, my CPU and GPU are being used as normal and my FPS goes up to normal (140+).

    Specs: MSI Laptop GTX 1050 4gb i7-7700HQ 16GB RAM

  3. Windows 10 and LOW FPS in games

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    Are you facing this issue with a particular game or with all games?

    I suggest you to go into the games settings and check if the FPS is set to low. IF its low then change it into high.

    Also see if the Monitor screen resolution matches the game screen resolution. You can check it by going into the setting of the game and check.

    Let us know the status of the issue. We will be glad to assist you further.

    Thank you.

    Low FPS Windows 10

    Yep same boat. AMD HD 7950 was getting 40-55 FPS on avg with Win7 most games I play.

    Now since I upgraded it's in the low 20's and jumps around between 16-33 fps.
