Ok here is the current situation. I have been playing DoD (HL mod) and NeverWinterNights, and just this past weekend my frame rate has gone to the dogs! Where I was getting steady 85 fps in DoD (its limited by fps_max 85, my refresh rate is 85Hz)
I am now getting only 10~17 fps, it is horrible. I tested the video card (I have a 9600XT) with my old GF3 Ti 200 and the frame rates are equally terrible.
I ran memtest 86 several times and it has passed each time.
I then took out the memory sticks and tried playing with equally bad results (just in case memtest86 didn't see a bad module).
So I think that maybe, I have a bad CPU Can anyone help me out? I think that I will swap my CPU into my brother's computer to see if his fps drop in games...
Does anyone have any ideas?
