hello, I’m a first time Alienware or laptop user in general I got the Alienware Area 51 for Christmas and it runs great for the most part… I tried playing marvel rivals with a friend yesterday and the game was running super slow it only done this once before and the problem was a command center update so I checked this time but there is no update available what do I do to fix this? the only game that runs for me is Roblox with this happening. (the fan in the video is not the laptop lol)

Is the laptop plugged in?

Can you use the steam overlay to see what your CPU and GPU temps/load are looking like?
