Hello,
I come to ask for help on this forum because I am running out of ideas (and hope). For a little over 6 months now, I've had an HP Pavilion Gaming laptop, which I will detail the configuration later, but for about 3 months I've been experiencing performance and FPS drops in all my games (Valorant, Fortnite, Apex...), which my laptop shouldn't be suffering from. My FPS goes up to 200, so there's no problem, but then it drops significantly (around 60 FPS and max 120 FPS on Fortnite and Apex, knowing that on Fortnite I can drop to 20 FPS) and then goes back up, (my processor is at 100% usage in-game while my graphics card is at 20% max and I went into the NVIDIA control panel to force the use of the graphics card) Please help me!
Model: HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-dk1xxx
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10300H CPU @ 2.50GHz, 2496 MHz, 4 core(s), 8 logical processor(s)
RAM: 16 GB
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti
BIOS version/date Insyde F.31, 03/09/2021

Hello,
Check before playing, in the task manager to close any processes or applications that might monopolize the CPU or RAM. Because if too many processes are using the CPU + games, the CPU is saturated at 100%, causing fps drops, freezes, lags, etc.
Check in Windows that the power mode is not set to power saving, otherwise select high performance to have enough power for gaming.
I found this tutorial to test if it can help:

A quick question, is the PC not packed with dust? If so, do a cleaning because if the fan grills, etc. are blocked, it creates overheating issues, freezing, etc.
I don't really know how to do it; even with these settings, the CPU is running at 100%, and the graphics card is running around 99%? In games, make sure that it's indeed the GTX 1660 Ti being used and not an integrated graphics processor like Intel HD Graphics.
