EtreCheck because of FPS Drops - how to interpretate?

I already read several posts about FPS Drops on MBPs, but no entry helped to me (esp because my EtreCheck seems a bit different to the others)
I am really sorry if this is a "double post", but i already gave up trying it for myself. Next to that im not such an experienced mac user and pretty unsure about editing/replacing/deleting system files.
Here's my EtreCheck entry, i really hope someone can help me with that and if you can see if there's a problem on my mac causing FPS Drops (it started about 3 days ago)
Thank You!

MSI FX600 sudden FPS drop (GeForce GT 325M)

Hello,
I've searched around for similar threads, but the results were inconclusive because the suggested fixes for this problem do not work for me.
When playing any game (tried LoL, Dota2 and Skyrim), the FPS drops every couple of minutes to 4-5 frames per second. If I alt-tab, wait ~10 seconds and then get back into the game, the FPS is back to normal. Then, after a few minutes, it happens again.
I tried fiddling with the GPU settings, I reinstalled the OS (Win 7 64-bit) and the drivers from the official MSI website. Nothing changed. It is not an overheating issue, as I only have this problem for one day, and the temperatures were not different before this (max 81 degrees celsius, cos I have a big-ass cooler). I do not have any antivirus installed. I can't remember doing anything out of the ordinary before this problem occurred.
Thanks in advance.

I have this same issue. It seems after about 5-10minutes after to gaming a game the FPS will suddening drop for about 5 minutes (unless, as you say, I alt+tab and give it a couple of seconds and go back to it). I have been trying to find a solution to this problem all over the internet, I have yet to find anything. I have tried updating drivers, tested out beta drivers for my Nvidia GeForce GT 325M on my MSI FX600 which I bought last january. If anyone has any idea how I could fix this, that would be great.

GE70 2OE, FPS DROPS

hey,
i bought the GE70 2OE gaming series notebook last week. but i noticed when i play CSGOi get fps drops from 170 fps to 20-30 fps for about 10 - 50 secs. This keeps on repeating during the gameplay and in dont think it's normal.
when i run MSI Kombustor i get 45 fps with 99% GPU Load, and without graphics ring i get 91 FPS with 17% GPU Load.
and if i look on msi afterburner when playing csgo i see that i have 70% GPU load = 170 FPS, and then it drops to 20 fps and i get 25% GPU Load.
i reinstalled csgo this didn't help, then i did a fresh W8 install but didn't help at all either. then i run MSI live update, it says there is a intel svga driver update, and when i install this i only get 15 fps on MSI Kombustor and 80fps on csgo. so i deleted this update because it got worse. i checked nvidia updates, but non available.
i hope somebody know's a fix, or knows what the problem is. to play games like this is not very fun.

Well, I'll be perfectly honest here, your CPU is running at nearly the max allowed temperature, which is most likely why it is throttling.
Notice how it's running at 80C or more on all the cores? That is not very good.....
Now, I'm not sure how adept you are with computers and/or electronics.
What I would suggest, if you are adept, is to replace/re-apply the thermal compound on the heatsink(s) for the CPU and maybe the GPU as well.
If you are NOT adept at it, then I would suggest RMA'ing the laptop. >>How to contact MSI.<<
when i start the game, and core temp are like 60°C, the CPU is already throttling. not only at 83°C.
and is not always at 83°C, when playing it goes from 71 - 83°C, and when not playing, it goes from 54-61°C
and about the heatsinks, it's a brand new notebook. so i got it delivered broken or what? and what about my 2year warranty!
what u mean with RMA'ing the laptop? xD
i just ran the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool, and the test passed. temp and everything was normal.
test results ( i can give the TestResults.txt file for full test results):
--- Load Level = 8
CPU Load Passed!!!
--- Temperature Test ---
Temperature Test Passed!!!

MSI GT60 2PC Dominator (w/ GTX 870M) - FPS Drop/Fan Problem

Hello all,
as the title explains, I am having a frustrating problem with FPS drops in demanding games only (until now in The Witcher 2/Bioshock Infinite) which I imagine is related to the fan speed. My notebook was bought on the end of September 2014, and this problem has always happened (I haven't played many demanding games during this year so that's why I am only really worried about it now).
I recorded a few in-game videos (during a The Witcher 2 session) so you can see with your own eyes how these drops happen.
Also, in the second clip, you can see how my fan speed oscillates all the time during heavy gaming (also during "The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition", in High Specs with minor tweaks). I would really appreciate if someone could tell me if this is normal or not, because it has been bugging me for a while! I haven't synchronized the clip of my fan oscillating with the actual gameplay during the time, but I can guarantee that in general these FPS Drops happen the most when the fan speed is oscillating the most.
If any more information is necessary, please ask me so I can provide them promptly!
I hope someone can help me!

Clip #2 - another The Witcher 2 FPS Drop example + Fan Speed recording:
Thank you for you consideration!

hey, maybe you can use the tool to export your system config so we can try to give advice. However, fan speed raising is the effect of the heat not the cause of the fps issue.

GE70-20D Massive fps drops. Serious problem.

Hello evryone. I have a big problem with my MSI Ge70-20D (i5-4200m 2.5ghz+ gtx760m + 8 GB ram).
The problem is a fps drops in League of Legends. Its so weird because when my game started (00:00-1;50) i have maybe 140-160 fps, but in next 2-3 min i have 90-120 fps. Okey it could be fine but, when i use my some spell i my fps drops from 100-40-50 and screen hm freeze or make a slowly for a sec. Its happening in diffrent situation. When i put first ward/when i get lvl up etc. Its so boring ,and people who play in lol know this.
The next problem is in BIG teamfightas when on screen we can see a Lot of Minions a lot of ACTIONS (spells /ultimates like malph yasuo and other champion which make a chaos on screen, my fps drops to 30-40 fps and i rly can't play with this.
I tried to find help in league of legends support but nobody helps me. I tried in nvidia forum but nobody helped me.
And sad thing is i spend a lot of money for this notebook and it :censored:ed up. My friend have a dell inspirion with gt820m (lowest gpu than me , and i5-4210m 1.7ghz cpu [also lowest than my] ) and he have constant 100-120 fps even on the screen we can see a lot of action. So tell me HOW ? How my msi ge70 is so bad.
I checked my temperature. They are good. (55-65 C) in game with cooler booster and 65-70 with no cooler boster [after a long game].
I have the latest drivers! Even i make a re-install system i still have this issues. I turn off vsync of course. Changing a setting for low/medium/high in game dont solve problem.
I have all netframework and ccc redistuable. I have a maximum perfomance in setting of power managment. My gpu can be broken?
PLEASE HELP SOMEONE.

Hi there,
Is your 8GB ram on only one pcs and run single channel? I mean two pcs of memory and let system run in dual channel can improve the performance.
And did you install game on SSD? That will also improve it.
Following is the suggestion I found from other post:
1. Memory is occupied by Killer process. Task manager shows RAM is 100% in use. And this problem can be resolved by updating new driver from MSI website. Or below link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1oSMeecH6wcUGlCTWFOd3lhTWc/view?usp=sharing
2. HDD is occupied by contents index or removing language packs process. We suggest user to check FAQ 740 and FAQ 646 for this two problems.
FAQ:740
When WINDOWS 8 OS is in idle mode, HDD usage often reaches 100%.

FAQ:646
http://www.msi.com/faq/nb-646.html
3. System didn’t use dGPU to run games. We knew that some of LOL old patches couldn’t start the game with auto select dGPU. User has to enter Nvidia control panel and assign the program to run dGPU.
4. When playing some games, game lags might happened due to the hard disk's power saving function. Also the hard disk's sounds might appeared due to the fast read/write tasks from the system. You can follow the instructions and try to turn off the power saving and acoustic management function of your hard drive to avoid game lags and try to decrease hard disk's sound.

Why does my mid-2010 Macbook Pro suffer from huge FPS drops whenever I try to play games?

Macbook info: 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3, nVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512MB
When I play games on my Macbook Pro, such as League of Legends, Diablo III, World of Warcraft, etc., they operate well with latency of ~80ms usually and fps starting off between 30-60, but after only a couple seconds or minutes my fps drops to 5-15 and the games become unplayable and I must force quit the program. Restarting the computer helps temporarily but then it relapses.
I cleaned out all my downloads, applications, and other deletable files that I could find. I installed and updated Mavericks OS X and the issue persists. Before I installed Mavericks I noticed in Activity Monitor that almost all of my memory was in use while playing a game. After Mavericks the memory is almost all permanently in use, but from what I've read this is what is supposed to happen and instead of looking at memory in use you look at memory pressure, which looks normal.
I was going to upgrade from 4GB RAM (current) to 8GB RAM and see if that helps but idk if that has anything to do with my fps issue or not. Any thoughts?

Alright well I'm definitely not running virus scans or doing system backups and then complaining about slow performance.... The only other application running besides whatever game i'm playing is SMC fancontrol to make sure my computer isn't overheating.
In terms of CPU%, games like WoW and LoL take ~50-60% of CPU while active, but activity monitor still reports ~80% idle. For disk activity, i'm not sure whether it uses optical or not, I assume i just uses the hard drive, which is brand new cus it broke down about a month ago and I had to replace it (the fans are brand new as well, so I don't think it could be build up of dust or anything inside because it was opened and cleaned so recently).
I can set all graphics setting to lowest possible and improve my fps to 20, which is still awful, and enabling vertical sync just sends it back down to 15 fps. I don't see why I should have to use lowest graphics settings anyway. It can't be out of date drivers since i have 10.9.1 running. Could the graphics card be the issue? That would suck since I can replace and upgrade RAM but not the graphics card.
I have repaired disk and disk permissions multiple times, virus scans, the whole gambit and nothing seems to help.

970 4G FPS drop for second screen when playing full screen video

Hi,
I have two 1440p monitors connected to my graphcis card using DVI connectors.
Whenever I play a full screen video on the secondary screen, I was always get an FPS drop. It doesn't matter if I switch the cables around to make the other one the secondary screen.
I have tried replacing the monitors and the same thing happens and I can only conclude it must be the graphics card.
Does anyone know how I can troubleshoot this problem?

Quote from: krash.raj on 31-May-15, 20:04:19
1) I'm not familiar with this concept. Why would switching port type provide more bandwidth?
2) Also, the card I'm referencing only has 1 display port connection. Would using one dvi and one display port cable work?
1) Google for "dvi", "hdmi" & "displayport" and you'll find out why.
2) use DisplayPort + dual-link DVI (always suggested by Nvidia)

Major bug in flash 10.2/10.3 beta. FPS drop in 1080p, HA.

Not sure if it has been reported before but there's a huge bug in the hardware acceleration on flash 10.2 and 10.3 beta.
The issue:
If you run 1080p youtube content fullscreen, hardware acceleration on, the FPS drop to 30-80% of what it should be, AFTER you seek in the video and flip back and forth fullscreen mode (if you don't do that, it just runs fine). If the FPS doesn't drop, then just flip/back fullscreen some more and seek some more, it pretty soon will drop. Once it dropped, it will stay low for the rest of the movie.
It's easy to verify when you put the FPS counter ('show video info') on screen, but you can also see it by just closely watching the video and see how it becomes less smooth.
When you disable the hardware acceleration the issue is gone.
Tested and confirmed on:
Win7, winXP
Chrome, IE, Mozilla
Flash 10.2 and 10.3 beta
Nvidia, ATI (both latest drivers)
So. pretty much everybody suffers from it I guess ...

When I open about this mac - more info and I switch through the tabs (display,memory,storage,support,service) it lags (fps drops, animation looks choppy not smooth). Why does this happen? (over 300 gb free,same programs installed,free desk-downloads)

When I open about this mac -> more info and I switch through the tabs (display,memory,storage,support,service) it lags (fps drops, animation looks choppy not smooth) even though all the mac (programs , interface ) works smooth . Why does this happen? (over 300 gb free,same programs installed,free desktop-downloads -no garbage there- everything neat and tidy.) Need some help. Only there it the animations goes like 2 fps and is not smooth. I do not understand why because the programs are the same so its the usage. Nothing is changed, yet i experience this little issue for a couple of days.

OK, I'm confused. When I do About this Mac > More Info in OS10.9, I don't see any animation other than the window resizing. Is that the animation you are describing?
Which if any of the following apply to your computer:
1) Are you running any anti-virus/internet security applications?
2) Are you running any "cleaning/tune-up/optimizations" applications?
3) Any peer-to-peer or torrent downloading software?
4) Any third-party disk backup software that came bundled with an external hard drive?
5) Any online backup scheme other than iCloud (Carbonite; GoogleDrive; MS One Drive)?
6) Did your financial institution ask you to install Trusteer EndPoint Protection (also known as Trusteer Rapport)?

MSI GT683r Massive fps drop (CPU overheating)

Hello, I'm having a lot of problems with my cpu temperature being high especially when gaming and this results in getting intermittent FPS drops when gaming. My fps when gaming drops to about 10fps (this doesn't necessarily happen when I'm in a particular FPS intensive condition either, could happen when I'm just walking around in the world). I've noticed my CPU temperature is close to 90 degrees when this occurs (I realize it's due to the core temperature being too high). It shouldn't matter what game since I should not get these FPS problems with a laptop like this but the game I play is a MMORPG called Rift.
After playing Rift for about 1 hour and a half mainly in pvp battlegrounds (15 players per team in the battleground so a total of 30 players), my core temp for my cpu reach the high 80 degrees and I’ve received 4-5 massive fps drops while playing during this time. I was able to screenshot my FPS during the FPS drops and I obtained a few screenshots while playing in game. See screenshots below.
NOTE1: CPU core Temperature is shown in the upper right of the screenshots, the running processes from the task manager is also shown in most of these screenshots.
NOTE2: I play with the native resolution of my laptop 1920 x 1080. I normally play windowed full screen but I include the CPU core temperatures & Task Manager so it wasn't window full screen. Also, I did not have the Turbo and the Nvidia Overclock Tool activated but I've tried both in the past and have not noticed a noticeable difference in my FPS drops while using them. (I also get FPS drops while using the Turbo and Nvidia Overclock Tool).
NOTE3: I play the game with medium settings to try to alleviate this FPS problem but I've had FPS problems still happens even in low settings.
After restarting my computer my idle temperature on all my 4 cores according to core temperature sits around 45 degrees (fluctuation + / - 2 to 3 degrees) with practically no processes running (close to 100k memory in the task manager processes).
When loading up Rift and being IDLE in town my cpu temperature fluctuates between 50 and 61 degrees. CPU usage in task manager fluctuates between 10-16%.
My Normal FPS in a combat environment playing Rift (fluctuates a little obviously but it's usually in the 25 FPS range), FPS can be seen on the bottom right of the Rift client (performance area)
FPS drop result after CPU temp overheating, FPS can be seen on the bottom right of the Rift client (performance area). The CPU temperature was in the high 80's before this FPS drop.
CPU temperatures while idling in town after a battleground (I also get FPS drops in town and dungeons as well but usually not as frequent as I do in a battleground or in Raids)
CPU temperatures while killing a boss in a raid, there were probably about 100 players in the environment, I had a huge FPS drop just after taking this screenshot
I also took a Screenshot of my core temp about an hour after I stopped playing, My CPU temperature was constantly fluctuating between the low 60's to high 70's when my computer only had a few processes running.
I've looked around for a solution for this problem but I can't seem to find one. I haven't physically opened my laptop to check if there's an issue inside but I've only started having this FPS problem since about 2 months. I had no FPS problems until recently.
Not sure if it matters or not but my NVIDA driver version is 296.10. I've tried reverting to the previous driver to see if this latest driver update was the problem but it didn't change anything. Other things I've tried is changing some settings in the NVIDIA control pannel but this has not worked either. I've even tried playing my game on the lowest settings and still had intermittent FPS drops. I've browsed through the forums and some people have suggested flashing the BIOS but I'm a bit skeptical to do that. I also attempted to call MSI customer support and left a message but they have not returned my call yet. Anyone got any suggestions to fix this problem?

The simple solution is to open the bottom and blow out the air through the center of the fan with canned air. The vents arent plugged but the fan itself probably looks like a fuzzy mop. Shoudl fix your problem and will not void your warranty.
The ideal solution is to pop the heatsyncs of the CPU and GPU, replace whatever crap their using with artic silver and appreciate a refined machine. Not only will you not have overheats but your machine will use its fan less and thus be quieter. This WILL void your warranty... but its worth it. Just dont do it unless you are savy.
Other then that. Lifting the laptop off the ground is ESSENTIAL. Look at the bottom. It has vents. Ask yourself.. "Self.. what could these vents possibly be for?" Self will hopefully reply "Well Self, I would say they are there for cooling." "SO self these vents have a purpose???" "Yes, self, they do. Their purpose is cooling and airflow" "Well then why do we not have airspace allowing air to actually get into these vents?" "Because self.. we like it flat.... Like a tire thats soon to be on fire..." Hopefully after that your enlightened self will go get a stand. If you want the lowest profile you can get you need a thin cooler system, if you dont care about that just buy a stand that permits airspace and flow. I mean your running an advanced gaming rig. In a normal box these components may have 4+ fans... Your laptop has one. Help it out.
The good news is perhaps cooking your cpu will have a burn in effect and make it clock to higher speeds... However I doubt it. Chances are you are cooking everything from said chip to your HDs and you should stop, because that MIGHT void your warranty.

GTX560 TI TF2 OC SLI Stuttering and fps drops

Hello,
i newly recieved my second 560gtx sadly it has massive fps drops if i play bf3 on high settings or ultra.
The cards have the power for ultra settings but those massive fps drops are just coming back and back.
Does anyone know how to fix it i already turned off hyper threading since other forums said this will help well it didnt. :(
Thank you

on the screens i noticed that i dont have the same bioses on the cards.
S/N of your cards are...?

also they are not running on 16x 16x lanes only 8x 8x how i enable both in 16 ?
that's down to boards slots, probably when both slots are used they auto arrange to 2x8
you wont feel difference from 16x anyway

Openarena fps drops

hi!
openarena 0.8.1 is out!
i have a problem with my fps: its important to keep them at constant 125 in order to move properly, but i have regular fps drops each second or so. my system should be able to run it smooth:
amd athlon 64 5000 BE @ 3 ghz, 9600gt and 4 gig ddr2 800 ram
im on arch 64 and use the stock kernel with 177.80 drivers..
any idea what could cause those fps drops ?

what i tried now:
- recompiled arch's kernel (only changed cpu type to k8)
- recompiled ioquake3 engine with different CFLAGS
- added "nopat" boot option
things are better, but the fps is still not stable, the last digit always changes, even if i set it com_maxfps 76
but the heavy drops each half second are gone since i disabled PAT..
what i want to try now is: running the game only on one core, not on both.. but i have no clue how to do so..
are there any other things i could try to improve things ?

MOVED: MSI GE70 FPS Drops + Lag Spikes

This topic has been moved to MSI Notebooks & Netbooks.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=182574.0

i saw your post and i'm going to try it as soon as i can ( probably tomorow night ) but i got a question, i got FPS Drop on CSGo ok, thats a problem many guys have with msi's GTX 860 M GPU ok meh, i also got something on League of Legend, i got a heavy lag spike ( about 300 ms ) during 3 / 4 seconds, then its coming back to 40 ms. Should i also try out, by reducing my GPU's temperature ( as you did in your post ) and try to see if it may do something for my League of legend lag spike aswell ? or might this come from an other problem on my laptop ?. i already tried to get Killer Lan network last update and it didnt change anything. I checked all of my drivers update about internets ( wifi card etc... ), all is updated. By the way, my lag spikes frequency goes as my FPS Drops on CSGo, about every 1 / 2 minuts, i just wonder, if it comes from my GPU, why on CSGo i got fps drop because gpu is hot meanwhile on League i got lag spikes to manifest my gpu's overheating ? Strange thing.
To be honest the heavily thing i'm mad of is that i played before on a Toshiba, with a simply cuda nvidia GPU, intel core i5, i had 30 fps on league of legend but never had any lag spikes. I also had 40 / 50 fps on CSGo but never had any problems like fps drop. I wonder why the hell are these MSI called " Gaming laptop ", if with a simple working notebook that may be only viable " for working on microsoft word " i got less problems ( A simple toshiba notebook by the way that cost 1/3 of this MSI's price . )
By the way panni i'm going to try your idea out tomorow and i'll tell you the result as soon as possible for CSGo.
Anyway if you got an other idea to help me for my lag spikes on league of legend i would be happy to hear you you'r free to PM me or we could even talk ( skype / teamspeak ) if you got something for me.
Thank you very much for your precious help

Lenovo 580 Fps drop

Soo lately i've been getting fps drops on my G580... Any suggestions how i can fix this?
I mainly play CS:GO.

Hi Mikk341h,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As per the query we understood that you are facing issue with FPS drops on your Lenovo G580.
Download any 3rd party HW-Monitor application to check the temperatures when the problem happens. Your best bet is overheating! How long have you had the laptop? After some time the thermal paste of the CPU and GPU tends to lose its efficiency, especially when you are always on high temps and it could be dust inside the laptop too.
Also check with Lenovo diagnose tool to verify if there is any issue with HDD or with memory.

Hope this helps. Do post back if issue persists!
Best regards,
Hemanth Kumar

MSI GE70 FPS Drops + Lag Spikes

Hey there everybody and msi's readers.
My problem is :
I bought my MSI GE70 one month ago ( i7 4700 HQ, GTX 860M )
I'm a League of legend player, and a CSGO player. I bought this laptop either for playing games and working ( using autocad and other construction stuff )
By the way, Since i get it, when i'm playing CSGO every minute or about, i got my laptop heavily lagging but my ping still at 30. I suppose, FPS Drop ( i already read a subject about it on this forum, i tried to put the thing @ 99% instead of 100% and trying to see if there was nothing running on the background that may give me these fps drops, by the way it didnt change anything )
The second point thats not on CSGO, on League of legend, every minute too or about, i dont got any fps drop but a heavy lag spike during 2/3 seconds, then the ping comes back to normal.
I'm a bit worried about it, there probably might me something to do on my laptop to fix these but i'm not an expert on it so please if anyone got any solutions can you help me ?
By the way, on the post that i read about someone having the same problem on CSGO, he was using a program that gave him his FPS, his GPU's heat and others stuff, may i have the program name please so i can give you more information on what happen when FPS Drop arrives on CSGO.
Thanks everyone who provides me help
And sorry for my english, i tried make it as clearly as i could by the way i'm not english .
If anyone that can help me about this dont understand what i mean in some points please ask me i will be pleased to answer for any helps haha
