So basically my fps usually sits at 400 minimum with optifine but a few days ago it decided to stay at 20-30fps no matter what settings i change, my fps isnt capped in settings or anything stupid, also ive troubleshooted most of the normal fixes i could find and still nothing, could be java? here is a screenshot of my f3 menu in game, ignore the client version as the fps stays the same with optifine and just 1.11.2 http://prntscr.com/dukv27 http://prntscr.com/dukv27

400? Did you get it in the same exact place? Is anything hogging up resources in task manager? Check your temps.

yeah it never really dropped below 400, sometimes went up to 1k+, nothing in task manager and temps are fine, thats why i have no idea what to do about it, even tried a fresh install of the game and java

Did you make any hardware modifications, change settings in the game, or install mods before you noticed it go down?

no nothing at all, the one thing i did was put it in windowed mode for about an hr then put it back to fullscreen.

Did you check your temps? Your pc may be thermal throttling.

temps are fine...

If really nothing changed I'm not really sure what to tell you. Are other games experiencing performance loss? Did your PC update anything (such as drivers).

a few windows updates around the time it happened.

Can you post a dxdiag? http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/pixel-format-not-accelerated/support/#dxdiag

You are running a Intel CPU that possibly has integrated graphics. Minecraft must be manually set if you have integrated graphics to run the Nvidia or AMD GPU

If you look at the first screenshot he posted you'd see he already set it. The top right shows he's using a Gtx 950.

Sorry for the late reply, here it is. http://pastebin.com/fgHHLPZx

Make sure Minecraft is using your GPU instead of the igpu intel one https://support.lenovo.com/ca/en/documents/ht082304

Its a old guide, scroll down and check if you see something that says video processor or hardware acceleration or power mode or battery saving or something like that

Its because your laptop is switching to the integrated gpu for Minecraft instead of using the real GPU, you need to find the setting that switchs it, im not familiar with the menu you are seeing so I cant help you with that
