Guys, my card started dropping its frame rate in games. Can anyone help me out? sad.gif

The GPU temperature is around 50c. Is the CPU temp @ 60 affecting anything?

My CPU is i5 3470 (Turbo boosted to 3.6ghz).

Core Clock: 960mhz
Memory Clock: 1440mhz

Is the game stuttering?
Does the FPS drop at all times or at certain point of the game?

The game isn't stuttering ( i dont think any game will with that card lol) and it only does drop during a certain point.

What the baffles me is that when i bought the card, it was working fine without frame drop, until 2 week ago... yawn.gif

Couldn't be a server latency as it doesn't affect frame rate. I am guessing about the parts of my PC and 99.9% sure about it. Might rma it.

If it's DRIVER's FAULT, it's recommended to use back the old driver(best 12.11).

Other wise, I think it might be:
a.) Pirated games problem(if you're NOT playing ORI games).
b.) Windows System problem(corrupted partially, virus, etc).
c.) Games settings problem(V-Sync thingy or Triple Buffering thingy).

What do you mean by "dropping its frame rate in games"? Not specific enough.

Means that the gameplay isn't as smooth as it was. Meaning that turning around is lag.

a.) Games are on licensed on Steam and Origin with product key and digital goods receipt.
b.) Windows is also licensed with OEM. And i have not visit any malicious website or neither is my computer acting up strange.
c.) V-sync is disabled as always.
