Solved! Gigabyte laptop super slow

[louieperea156]

Hey there, I purchased a gigabyte p56 a little over a year ago and I have had probelems since then. I use a verity of photo and video editing softwares but it's been super slow with the hardware that it has built in. This laptop has an i7 7700hq, Ddr4-2400 16gb, an SSD with 256gb and a terabyte hdd(7200), as well as a gtx 1070. It also can't seem to play games at a solid fps unless it's fans are set to Max. The computer also seems to run hot, which I'm told is normal for laptops.

Have you made sure that you are running the latest graphics drivers for your GPU?
