I made sure that it doesn't heat, Both cpu and Gpu temperatures are FINE
I have tried restarting
Disabling game dvr in the registry
Lowering the Graphics in the game
Installing different Driver Versions Both from the NVIDIA and HP websites (for my exact laptop model)
Setting battery plan to high performance
Disabling and Enabling the GPU
Checking for Viruses and malware with Malwarebytes avast est nod32 etc
Adjusting the Right settings in the Nvidia Control panel so that It gives me the Best performance
Rolling back and Uninstalling updates (Windows 10)
Updated Windows to the latest Update available
Updated Bios
Trying third party software like throttestop
my Games were running very Smooth and All of a sudden they're unplayable
My GPU gets Fps drops even on Old games like css or L4D2 or gmod that doesn't Need any High specs that even my Integrated graphics Is doing better

Try the below steps, as even if the game is compatible with your system hardware it may have a slow performance because you are using the windows 8, 8.1 or 10 as the OS uses most of the CPU & graphics card usage, you might want to reduce the visual effects for windows to save the amount of CPU & Graphics card usage required to run your game properly.
Here's how you do it:
-
Go to Start Menu > click on Settings.
-
Type performance > choose Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows.
-
In the new window, go to the Visual Effects and select Adjust for best performance.
-
click Apply and ok...this should do the trick.
