Just trying to get the Witcher 3 playing in 1080p with around 30fps on my gtx 1060 laptop, i've checked online and it states i should be able to at least hit 30+fps on medium settings but currently struggle to the frame rate above 10 with all settings on lowest, even went to 768 and couldn't hit 30fps. Is there anything i'm doing wrong? I am new to gaming on laprop/pc so any advice would be great. My specs are:

- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 - 6.0GB GDDR5 Video RAM

- Intel Core i7 quad core processor 7820HK (2.9GHz, 3.9GHz turbo)

- 16GB Corsair DDR4 RAM

Does your laptop has an integrated CPU? Check if your game is really utilising your gtx 1060 and not your onboard graphics.

Some people have experienced fps drops caused by using diverse antivir software. You could try a different one or to disable it temporarily for testing purposes. Since the w3 works also when offline you could disable the network card in the device manager or simply pull the network cable.

Also notebooks usually have loads of bloatware that runs in the background. Thus it could be useful to clean out your autostart.

Additionally you could test if it helps to switch from windowed mode without borders (that was my default setting after the installation) to fullscreen mode or any other option that is available.

I mentioned that my swap file (which I have on a seperate small ssd drive just for swap and temp files) is getting very big (30 gb and more) while playing W3. So make sure you have enough disk space left.
