Hello My Problem involves around battery it drains so fast even it has 70 Whr on idle, i downloaded HWinfo and it turns out the battery is discharging at -30w-  -36w after research it should be around -10w below, upon further investigation CPU uses -6-10w discharge rate and i notice that the dGPU is constantly on and off even it should be inactive right?? Dgpu dischage at -20w up to -23w for 1 sec then goes off then turns on again like a broken light switch even theres no 3D app to use... thats causing the high battery discharge rate and the battery only lasted for 2hrs instead of advertised up to 8 hrs... is this the normal behavior of the dGPU or theres some bugs here??? thanks for the answer....
