    As far as I can tell it looks fine. The gpu is maxing out utilization, but everything appears well in operating range temp wise including ssd.

    I did disable Intel turbo boost in the bios in case it was triggering throttling

      If gpu is on 100% usage it does sound like that was causing the frame drop @issambard

        That makes sense but I am seeing 100 percent usage on re8 maxed out and performance is great. I have also tried lowering the settings for tf2 and I didn't check on the GPU usage, but it made no difference. (my old laptop with a 1060 didn't need to lower settings btw?

        The usage report is in Alienware control panel so I don't know how correct it is.  

        Update though I haven't seen the issue in a few hours of play, I'm hesitant to say the latest Nvidia driver solved it though. I'll keep testing thank you!
