alright so just an example on my pc i get 50+fps maxing out bf3 now my problem is in a game as simple as gmod for some reason it keeps droping daown to 30-100 fps if i lock it with vsync it stays at 30 but if i turn off vsync the fps just goes up and down like crazy and its un playable the fps goes all the way down to 15 the jumps up to 250-300 so im not quite sure what to do :s and as another exaple skyrim with enb series also runs better then gmod at a constant 60 fps

specs
i5 4430 3.0 ghz
gtx 560 (asus oc edition)
8 gbs of ddr3 ram 1666mhz
500gb hdd with my games
120 gb ssd with os
 
Solution
Trying going into NVIDIA Geforce Expirence and optimize Gmod with your GPU to get the best results:) And try updating your drivers:) If i found a solution please notify me:)
