When I am playing a game my GPU(965m Nvidia Geforce) will start off fine with constant performance then mid game it will slow down and not want to start working again My processor is the Intel i7 6700HQ CPU @2.60Ghz. I have tried changing some Nvidia Control Panel setting but nothing seems to work.
 
Solution
The reason this is happening is due to the high temps. 90 is very high for a laptop so it throttles the cpu and gpu down. You can try playing games at lower settings.

Sorry for the late reply, had to wipe my laptop, but the temps are usually 70-90 degrees Celsius when gaming and my frames start to drop off around the 60-70. I also checked the inside of my laptop and there is no dust buildup or no need for a thermal paste replacement

It actually isn't happening anymore. I just unplug the charger and plug it back in and it goes back to normal but i will turn down the settings.
