    Hello everyone,



    I recently bought MSI 16F3 with GTX 680M, 3610QM, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD, BR-OPTICAL DRIVE, etc...

    It's maxing out most of the games and scoring as it should in 3D Mark 11 ( around 6200 ). But, today I installed minecraft on my laptop and I made sure that I was in the high performance mode and that I whitelisted the game in Nvidia panel. After couple minutes of playing I recieved a terrible lag (fps drop) which you can see in video below.I think my CPU is throtlling. I monitored my GPU in MSI Afterburner and found out it's usage goes to 0 and then the spikes occur (check the picture below). I also did some CPU testing with Real Temp (picture below), but since I am not expertised in this area, I don't really know whether it is throttling or not. Somebody please help me resolve my problem :confused: :(

    Here's the video where it actually happens : Minecraft 3610QM Throttle - YouTube
