Windows 10: Lag at night

So I play Fortnite pretty often. I have a pretty nice pc and usually get 120-200 fps on Fortnite. Lately whenever I have been playing Fortnite at night I get extremely low fps. And I’m talking 30-10 fps and I don’t know what’s happening my ping is usually at 10-20 and even at night when it’s lagging but I’m just getting extremely low fps.

Random lag spikes

Hi,

We would like to know more about your lag issue:

• What browser are you using when you experience a lag?
• Does the lag occur in a particular game?

In the meantime, we suggest you run the System Maintenance troubleshooter. Here are the steps:

• Press Windows Key + X.
• Click on Control Panel.
• Select Troubleshooting.
• On the left pane, click on View All.
• Click on System Maintenance to run the troubleshooter.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Laptop (HP Pavilion Gaming - 16a0xxx) suddenly started lagging over night. Lags on Google, youtube, reddit, and games.

Laptop started lagging over night. Posting this before work, so hopefully someone will comment.

Things I've tried..

• Going to device manager and right clicking all to try to update. No updates for anything.
  
• Searching for PC updates. PC doesn't need updating.
  
• Posting on other forums - no one else could help, sadly.
  
• Restarting laptop. Doesn't fix issue.
  
• Leaving laptop turned off for 8+ hours. Doesn't fix issue.
  
• Literally checking to see if anything needed updating. Nothing needed updating.
  

Exact symptoms..

• Lagging on any tab.
  
• Audio chops when switching from YouTube to another tab.
  
• Lagging on more than 2+ tabs open.
  
• Lags if even one tab is open.
  
• Slower to start up.
  
• Playing games, even on low settings, and older games, is nearly impossible due to lag.
  
• If two tabs are open, and I try to close one, it takes 20+ seconds to do so. Same goes for switching tabs.
  

I've not downloaded anything new, I've got 7.8gb of 8.0gb of space left, so it isn't that.

I just need help, please.

 

Night Light Setting and Third Monitor.

Hi Reagan,

We would like to ask you some questions in order assist you properly:

• Did Night light work previously on all three monitors?
• Have you made any recent changes to your PC?
• Are you getting an error message on the third monitor regarding Night light?
• Is the third monitor being detected by your PC?
• What troubleshooting steps have you performed so far?

While waiting for your response, we suggest that you try to connect your third monitor to what you are using on the 2 working monitors to see if it is only a loose connection issue.

Regards.
