Received a GE62 6QD Apache Pro, have questions
Hi all, as above I've recently received the above laptop. I've seen that it doesn't support XMP, but even with the existing 16gb ram I'm getting stuttering.
Is this due to the ram being 2133mhz only? Is there a way to get higher speeds if I get ram that can go higher speeds? Is there any way I can reduce stuttering anyway?
I'm not trying to go crazy here, but even simple stuff (Graveyard Keeper being the example I stumbled on), moving around is causing stutter. It generally won't use more than 8gb of the installed ram, though I've seen it go slightly higher.
Any ideas on getting peak performance out of this thing? It's still an upgrade from my Surface Pro 7 (4gb of ram), so I'm going to be using it for a while anyway.
Editing to add: Rookie mistake. 5 years in IT and I had no idea about the "optional updates" section in windows update. Solved the stuttering.
