UHD model ?? I had to switch to FHD in order to get decent FPS in fortnight.
Power cable should be plugged in for Gaming. Power cable and its exact wattage should be detected correctly. BIOS > General > battery information,
Test the GPU for gaming performance
Supportassist > Troubleshooting > I want to troubleshooting my PC > Scan a specific piece of hardware > Graphic Card (nvidia) Let the test run for a while, Test shows FPS as well temperatures.
If the test shows expected FPS performance, you can focus on the game settings.
Try GeForce experience and download Game ready driver,. Let it scan for Games and apply recommend settings.
Power cable is plugged in, made that mistake a few time when i played on this laptop before
GPU Performance
I have support assist in Swedish so translation below is my own
Video test = Pass CUDA test = Was not able to run message Video stress test = Laptops reboots it self maybe 30 sec in to the test. After hitting 72 degrees.
When runing the video test it looked a bit wierd I think, or is it correct?
Directx 12 looked ok with FPS between 60-90. Directx 11 had between 3-15 FPS Dirextx 10 had between 11-15 FPS Wireframeshadow 15 FPS Shadow "showing" 15 FPS
Video stress test before it crash/reboots laptop: Transformation and lighting 16 FPS
Video stress test = Laptops reboots it self maybe 30 sec in to the test. After hitting 72 degrees.
Enough testing : If in warranty seek Heatsink and Fan assembly replacement. If not in warranty get a good quality thermal paste from Market and reapply it. VIDEO LINK
I dont think that heat is my main issue since I can already on fortnite startup loading spinner see that i get really low FPS. And the laptop is not even close to hot underneath when I am in the fortnite lobby.
I had same laptop shutting down due to heat several years ago when playing fortnite. But the problem was solved then. Intel Thermal drivers something.
I was going to get thermal paste if i could get fortnite to run normally, which it is not at the moment.

Laptop is out of warranty since 2 or 3 years ago.

Yes the Problem can be hardware too (GPU) which is embedded on Motherboard.
It wouldn't make any sense to recommend that replaced
Thus Thermal paste and heatsink which are cheaper repair options.
