My first guess is that maybe you have messed the thermal paste up on the CPU/GPU or both of them. This would cause your temperatures to run unusually high, which then would throttle your CPU/GPU down to control the temperatures. This in turn would slow your performance down.

nope, i detached only the fan, the two cooper pipes from cpu/gpu didn't move an inch
L.E>>i started a temperature-measurment program, and after 10 mins in WOW gaved me the following data:
GPU 63
CORE 70
Hdd 60
not high temps though, i guess

Can you hear or see if the fan is spinning? It's possible it's not plugged in causing your heatsync to heat up and your cpu/gpu to auto downclock to keep from overheating.

in full load in World of Warcraft with settings in ultra, the temperature didn't jumped more that 75 degrees, so i do not think is some hardware problem...could be possible that my drivers might be corrupted? so that they don't switch the cards when i enter in games, instead of nvidia gpu, the intel gpu from cpu remain active?
sorry 4 my bad english though:):D


L.E...old games like serious sam 2 and nfs underground 2 work with 60 fps, but when i enter new ones like crisis and gta iv, i have 10-15 fps...i think that my cards dont switch, what should i do?
