When I bought my laptop around 5 months back, I had amazing FPS and had no real FPS lag, but about a month after I got the laptop the FPS dropped to around the speed of my old laptop (horrible FPS basically, 40-50 fps on minecraft even on extremely low graphics.) Even on Warframe I use to run at max graphics at 40+fps but now I can barely run 40 on the most minimum graphics.

I've done several virus scans and have not come up with any reason for why the FPS would randomly get reduced the way it has, and idk how to fix it. I've searched but never found anything.

Am I just stupid or is this just some freak thing that my laptop did that can't be fixed?

Specs:
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 8550G
CPU: AMD A8-5550M APU (4 Cores) 2.1GHz
RAM: 4GB
(64-bit, Windows 8 )


Help is very much appreciated! Thanks
