Hi. I have had many troubles with my hardware just this being one of them that i am stumped on. Here are my system specs and what is wrong.
Gigabyte 81915p duo-pro motherboard
pentium 530j lga775 (socket T) 3.0 ghz. 1 meg L2 cache
Maxtor diamondmax 200 gigabyte native command queing
GeForce nvidia 6600gt pci-express x16
corsair valueselect ram 1 gig (2 x 512)
lightscibe and toshiba cd/dvd drives
Now heres the problem. I play Counter Strike 1.6 and Source. In 1.6 I get 100 or so fps and every time i turn a corner or i have more to load or sumpthng like that it lags down to about 30 fps. In source i get 30 fps and it does the same thing. Lags down to about 20 or 15 fps. I benchmarked at 7800 points in 3dmark03. I just built my system and Im thinking it could be the drivers for the motherboard or the drivers for the videocard. It could also be the graphics card itself. it idles at 50 degress C. My cpu idles at 50 on startup and about 70 under load probably, normal temp of around 60. I have a third party fan so over heating shouldn't be a problem.
If you want any more information about my system, i will e-mail it to you and because it is from 3dmark.
Help is greatly appreciated and i will do anything. Excpet spend more than 50 dollars or so... hahahahaha.
