Sudden FPS drop

Recommended Posts

The past week i have began the experience some major FPS drops in games.

 

Here are my specs:

 

Intel Core i3 3.2Ghz

2x2GB RAM

Radeon HD 5770

Windows 7 64bit.

 

In CSS my fps used to be 200 now it is jumping from 60->20 which is giving me extreme lag.

 

Even in minecraft i am getting fps lag.

 

Things i have tried:

 

Running a few things with CCleaner

Defragged my harddrive

Scanned for viruses

Updated my graphics drivers.

 

And... My temps are all below 60 degrees Celsius.

 

I am out of ideas.

Does anyone have a solution?

You could possibly have a keylogger, highly unlikely but it happens.

 

Delete temp files if you haven't with CCleaner already.

 

If you have installed any programs before this major fps drop happened, I suggest you uninstall them.

 

Just because I've done it so many times, I usually just reformat my laptop, backing everything up of course :P

I haven't installed anything.

I have wiped out the temp folder also.

This just came to mind also:

 

Goto your steam game/s > right click on click on properties.

 

Goto the "Local Files" tab and click on "Verify Integrity of Game Cache" and "Defragment Cache Files".

 

You can also try to defrag your C: drive and any other drives/partitions that you have.

 

*EDIT*: my bad, I'm just trying to multitask too many things *facepalm*

*EDIT*: make sure you have your graphics and general drivers up-to-date.
