Hello everyone!
I own the msi gt76 Titan.
In the bios it's marketing name is: GT76 Titan DT 9SF
Model name: MS-17H1

recently I have been trying to play world of warcraft while using only the battery as the power source and I can't manage to get any higher than 22fps.
I haven't adjusted any graphics in the game itself, I feel that shouldn't be the answer to my issue.

I have tried going into nvida control panel and adding it to the list so it'd utilize the 2070 gpu.
I've also gone into GeForce experience and changing the battery boost to 60fps.
I made sure the battery itself was in performance mode by right clicking the battery icon on the bottom right hand corner of the screen and adjusting the settings in the window that comes up.
The last thing I checked, but didn't change anything was in the Msi dragon center app, but I believe this only changes how the fan speeds are.
What I would like is to be able to get the 60 fps I know this laptop can do while solely relying on the battery as it's power source, I realize I won't get a lot of battery life while gaming, that's not a concern for me.

Also while I'm here, I've also replaced the factory power supplies with the aftermarket one made by HID evolution.


I don't really expect any help with this being as it's aftermarket, but was hoping I could get someone's input that had made the same upgrade.
The power brick has a on/off switch built into it, but it makes no difference when the laptop is powered off, besides not charging the laptop if it's off, the actual concern is this.
Basically what it does is when I am done with my laptop for the night, I'll turn off the laptop, and if I leave the power cable plugged into the power brick, the screen on the brick will flicker constantly.
It'll do this whether it's plugged into the laptop or not.
I've tried having it resolved by the manufacturer multiple times by having it sent back, but every time I get it back it's the same issue.
I was wondering if anyone else had this same experience, and should I be concerned about it damaging my laptop while it's off?
It charges my laptop great, I have no issues with it other than what I've already said, it's just annoying to unplug the cable from the brick every time I'm done, plus I'm also concerned damaging the socket where the cable goes into the brick by repeatedly removing the cable.

I hope I provided enough info, if not, I'll do my best to answer any questions.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Will you have the performance problem under AC mode?
Basically, the laptop's performance will be locked or decreased under DC mode.
However, you can try to adjust the related power setting.
1. Choose Power mode to "Best Performance" from "Power & battery"
2. Switch Shift setting to "Turbo" mode.
About the screen flickering issue. Can you record the behavior? It is kind of weird.
Because you had mentioned you will turn off the laptop after you are done with it, i am wondering if you mean the laptop will turn on automatically while plugging in the power adpater.

It seems I may have confused you.
The aftermarket power brick has its own screen that tells me voltage and a few other things.
What I do exactly, when I'm done with my laptop, I'll power it down completely.
If I leave the aftermarket power brick plugged into the wall, the screen on the power brick will flicker, nothing comes on the display, it just lights up and turns off within a millisecond.
It will do this even if I have the switch on the power brick in the on or off position.
The only solution I could come up with is to unplug the power brick entirely from the wall.

Also, I'll look into the other settings you mentioned when I get a chance and get back to you on that. I'm not around the laptop right now.
