If so, what are your thoughts??

Hey guys, can anyone give me an explanation for this or help me fix it?

Basically I bought my first gaming laptop last November, it’s a Lenovo Loq essential 15irx11, the specs are as follows

CPU
Intel Core i5-13450HX (13th Gen)
GPU
NVIDIA RTX 5050 Laptop GPU, 8GB GDDR7
GPU TGP
65W
RAM
16GB DDR5-4800
Storage
1TB PCIe Gen 4 QLC SSD
Display
15.6” 1920×1080 IPS
Refresh rate
144Hz

When I got it, it surprised me as it played hell let loose really good for the specs, I was easily hitting anywhere from 70-90fps and every map played and looked great!

But around May this all changed, and performance took a complete nosedive, now I can’t crack 60fps in game on any map no matter the settings, I tend to stay at about 40-50 and have never seen it get anywhere near the respectable 70 it used to do with ease, never mind 80-90

I’m just wondering if anyone has any ideas where it’s gone wrong? I’m not the most tech savvy person, but I have tried tweaking settings, and even reinstalling the gpu drivers, nothing seems to be fixing it, and I’d honestly say the game is pretty unplayable for me now. My xbox series s genuinely does a better job running it, and I know that just can’t be right given the specs of both machines.

It’s not a laptop issue as other games perform great, flight simulator for example gets 70-80fps easily.

I’d really appreciate any advice as I miss playing this game.

Somebody find me her instagram

Lads, I'm sorry to be clogging up the subreddit with my problem... but is there anyone out there who would consider themselves fairly tech savvy that would be willing to dm me and try to help me sort an issue I've been having for the last 3ish weeks with gaming performance on a Lenovo Loq Essential 15irx11? I'm honestly not far from smashing the thing to pieces here because it just wont fix the issues, even after I follow all the advice given. Thanks in advance.
