I have a gaming laptop and I got this a few months ago and I have been having this issue ever since I got this laptop. I can be playing a game like Left For Dead 2 and go from 200 FPS to 40 FPS. I have a GTX 965M, 12GB RAM, i7-6700HQ. I know 40 fps isn't too bad but I should be able to run these games way more than 40 fps. This happens in CSGO, GTA, Call of duty, and just any game in general. I have a cooling pad under my laptop. I also found a little fix for this but it isn't permanent. So if I drop to 30-40 FPS randomly, unplugging my charger and then putting it back in will fix it after like 10 seconds. (For example, I am playing CSGO and I go from 200 FPS to 30-40, I unplug my charger, then plug it back in again, wait 15 seconds and I get the 200 FPS back but after like 10-20 minutes the drops will come again. Lowering settings does nothing. How can I fix this? Thank you!

Yes I always keep them up to date.
It doesn't enter power safe mode, it works perfectly with a charger until 20 minutes when it starts lagging I have to unplug it and plug it back in. When I unplug it I get like 5 FPS but when I plug it back in, I get normal FPS after 15-20 seconds.
