Hi all,
I'm experiencing some problems while playing some games (Batman Arkham Origins, Assassin's Creed Blackflag, Call of Duty Ghosts): my FPS are high as expected for the first minutes (5-10) then performance drop (I usually set GPU fan to 50%, 77-78 degrees max temp) and it becomes hard enjoying the game (stuttering, even with fps over 50-55 i feel like they are 20-25 for fractions of a second). Driver: Catalyst 13.12 WHQL

System spec:

Intel i7 2600k @ 4.4 ghz @ Corsair H80i - Nice temperatures
Asus P8P67 Pro
2x4 Gb Corsair Vengeance
XFX Pro Series 750W 80 Plus Bronze
SSD Samsung 830 128 GB
Please write me some suggestions to solve that annoying problem.
Thanks!

Sapphire released a bios update @end of November but catalyst 13.11 included the new duty cycle update (the only change that the new bios did), should I have to download it?

Yes you have to download the BIOS update, in order to install it. Do you have the latest Catalyst driver (13.12) installed ? If not first install it, if the problem persists then do the BIOS update.

I play with Fraps opened and it's a FPS drop not lag spikes, I have a good connection with stable ping.

Call of duty ghosts, black flag and Batman Origins are Nvidia optimized games, they are new and still not completely refined even on Nvidia graphic cards.

You might need to lower your settings until the games are updated.

Your power supply is more than enough based on wattage however I suggest you try a gold or platinum Corsair or Seasonic because your graphics card is a beast and it might give you better performance with more stable power...
