When i play black ops 3 i get like 20 fps i dont know why and hw to fix that.
please help me and sorry because i made 2 post and i dont know how to delete one.
 
minimum for a graphics card is a GTX 470, your 840M is about half the speed of the 470. Your graphics card is holding you back, since its a HP laptop im not sure if you can change it out.
 
the 840m will hardly use more then 2gb, having 4gb on the card is almost a waste and will not help with any performance over a normal 2gb version card. So no 4gb vs 2gb does not make a difference on a 840m.
