High FPS - poor performance

I have been on +-125 fps on average with a decent PC (specs below). A friend of mine has half the pc, and +-200 fps. I have tried all his settings, optimizing according to nvidea, etc and I can get 180-190 fps, but then I run so slow, it feels like it is lagging. I have tried overclocking my GPU (that's how I got higher FPS).

Does anyone know what I can do to get really high FPS?? Can the size screen influence the FPS either? I am running via HDMI, not normal VGA.

Thanks,
Josh

PC Specs:

256GB SSD ( default drive, has OS )
16GB Corsair RAM
2TB Samsung Hard Drive
500GB Samsung Hard Drive
Intel Quad Core i7 3.5 GHz
Evo Gaming Fan for CPU
MSI H77MA-G43 (MS-7756)
GTX 650 1GB GDDR5 GPU

It depends entirely on the monitor. VGA was previously used with CRT monitors over 60 Hz, but an LCD with a VGA input will likely run this at 60 Hz.
For LCD monitors that support over 60 Hz, Dual-link DVI or Displayport are used.
Dual-link DVI can support 1920x1080 @ 144 Hz.
Displayport can support 2560x1440 @ 144 Hz.
This support is monitor dependent.

The physical size of the montior has no effect on performance.
The resolution, or the number of pixels on the screen, does have an effect.
It doesn't matter though if your card...

Ya man . screen size can affect the fps a lot . if your friend's monitor is smaller than yours then that's the reason .

can you give more details ? what game . whats your and your friend's monitor size ?

by the way . did you know that both of you are just seeing 60-75 FPS of the game ? no matter how high your fps can go ?
because most monitors refresh rate is 60/75 . and that means 60 or 75 FPS . no matter your vsync is on or off

so dont worry about it man ;)

It doesn't matter though if your card is producing frames quicker than your monitor can display them.
