playing counterstrike i get fps lagg bout 20 secs into gameplay and my fps drops to bout 30 and then after like 20 secs it goes back up to 120 it also happens when watching some movies from warcraftmovies.com
i got a 8600gt i presume its something with my graphics card
im running xp home
any ideas please?
It could be your graphics card yes, but it could be many things, including a CPU that overheats. Happened to my gf's pc some time ago. Do you monitor your system temps. What are your system specs?
