[Blade 15 Mid 2019-base] Low GPU & CPU utilization in Elden Ring - bad performance | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Hi. In the imgur album both CPU and GPU show low utilization. Power/clocks also seem adequate.

A video with similar spec, same area, same resolution - stable 60 fps.





FPS jumps 40-55, making input and overall experience bad. Changing settings and resolution doesn't do anything, even lowest preset + 800x600.



Things I did so far:



-set app to use eGPU in nvidia control panel

-set app to use eGPU in system/display/graphics

-set power mode to "best performance"

-test GPU with MSI Kombustor, it can reach 100% utilization



Razer Blade 15 Mid 2019-base

RTX 2060

i7 9750H

16gb ram

512.77 driver

Windows 11 Home 10.0.22000



Note, I am running my laptop without battery (it was swollen so I removed it).



Someone suggested this might be caused by the power limit (doesn't seem to go higher than 80w). Power sliders are disabled in msi afterburner (by bios?).

I will create a case and forward this to our RMA Team for a replacement battery request. PM me the serial number of your laptop so I can validate its model specifications and help me start a case. I will lock this thread to curb our conversation privately.
