I’m getting fps drops to the single digits, while on average its around 30 fps. Even on lower settings and in smaller instances. my specs are:

  • AMD Ryzen 7
  • 16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR4
  • 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060
  • 953GB Western Digital WDC PC SN730 SDBPNTY-1T00-1101
  • 1863GB Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 2T (Starfield’s installed here)

Any help or insight is welcome.

Solved: It was an overheating CPU due to the vents being clogged with dust. Thanks for all the advice given, I do really appreciate it!

    Does the Legion 5 come with built in tuning software? My MSI Raider has an app called “MSI Center” that can adjust performance, and I fixed a similar issue recently by enabling “gaming mode” for the affected game (and now I enable it for every graphically intensive game). Now my fans sound like a jet taking off, but performance is noticeably better. Not perfect in Starfield (my FPS is sitting in the mid 40s most of the time, on High settings, at 4k), but pretty good.
