    recently i purchased m17x everythings go smooth
    but when i play lol it only hv 30-40 fps
    ive turned to nvidia 880 in global settings of the graphics control panel
    i understand m17x comes with a 6-hz monitor so i switched off vsync
    but it still only 30-40 fps
    ive played lol on lower spec desktop but those hv over 100 fps
    it feels lag with only 30-40 fps
    is this normal?
    i will try to play another game to see is it lol's prob or the pc

    Umghh, make sure in your NVIDIA optimus menu, your game is set to use the 880M.. Also what are your max temps during the game? Use Hwinfo64 to monitor them..
