Hey all, didn't know to post this in any of the subforums or not, anyway, heres my problem: since yesterday afternoon, i had a huge lag on my pc, then it was very slow for the whole day, even after rebooting a few times. Also when I played I noticed I had an FPS drop, usually I run GW on max settings at around 100-130+ FPS, now it has dropped to somewhere around 60-70, and at some places even 20 or lower, which is weird, same thing with CoD 4, the FPS is lower then it used to be. I hope you're able to help me, thanks .

not sure what the problem is, i have been experiencing the same thing myself, i do know that it has something to do with your pc. Do you have any other major programs running in the background? Have you cleaned out your files? Dust in your PC? a few suggestions even though I don't know for sure if those help

temps? Your GPU might be over heating or you may have a virus - scan your pc thoroughly... if you need a tool to monitor temps - everest ultimate has a good trial version that is free to download.
