Inconsistent FPS every time
I have been playing Sonic Unleashed for a while now at 120fps with all the resolution and shadows at high quality and apart from specific sections in Sonic levels, the game has been running consistently. Now today I don't what happened that the game tanks every time. I checked my drivers, updated it to the latest version and the game still tanks even at the lowest quality. The game can't even run at a consistent 60fps and I know I have a decently strong gaming laptop. It's a HP Victus Gaming Laptop 15. I've checked if there was an update to Unleashed but I still have the latest version. If there's anything that can fix this, I would gladly appreciate it
Specific to Sonic Unleashed but now it seems all my games are having fps issues. At first, I thought it was my driver not being up to date but after I update it the issue still remains. I start the game, play one level like Skyscraper Scamper, a level that ran flawlessly, and then when I go back to the hug world, the fps just tanks and become inconsistent for the rest of the game even at the lowest video settings. I don't understand what happened
Press F1 in-game, expand Device Names and show everything.
-How do I do that? I press F1 in-game and a whole chart appears. I press Device Names and what else?
The game is using your NVIDIA GPU so... I dunno. Seems like a problem with your system. Is your laptop getting throttled from heat or something? Or maybe you enabled some kind of global performance saving mode?
- Everything that has to do with Saving mode regarding gaming, I have it all off and I don't really mess with it, but the back of my laptop does look cluttered with dust so I'm going to open up and clean my laptop to see if there's any difference. Just in case, where do I check the global performance saving mode option on my laptop?

That entirely depends on the manufacturer of your laptop, can't help you there.
This can be closed. This is definitely unrelated to the project.
If you are on Windows on a laptop with newer nvidia drivers than 566.36, this can happen for DX12 games. You can force the game to use Vulkan as a workaround.
The user appears to be a throwaway account, so I wouldn't expect a reply.
Either way this is unrelated to this project.
