Laptop performing noticeably worse on own screen vs monitor
So I've seen this thing lately with my Acer laptop. There's difference between plugging in another monitor or using the laptop screen. Every game I play (mostly CS GO, Dota 2) also runs much more smoothly if I use an external monitor; we're talking about 30-50fps on laptop screen compared to 60-90 fps with another monitor, for example LG W2442PE. I know it sounds silly, but is there anything wrong with the laptop (e.g. drivers, software, even hardware)? Is there anything I could do about it?
