    I mean. is harmful for the battery playing demanding games when the laptop is not plugged in?

    I have some issues playing call of duty black ops when the laptop is plugged in, so I wana know if I am doing bad playing just with the battery.

    Thank you for helping

    Well. then is it better to leave the battery out or in when the laptop is always plugged in?

    I'm guessing turning off battery charging is under bios?
