Product: HP Envy 15t-j100
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, I am using an HP Envy 15t-j100 laptop, and I noticed that every time I play games, my CPU speed drastically decreases from 3.3gHz to 1.8gHz. Can anyone explain to me if this is normal, or if there is any way to fix this? My laptop is always set to Maximum Performance, and it is plugged in. Thank you so much
