Hi,
Lately I have been having this really weird FPS drop. Both my games (League of Legends, Team Fortress 2) would run at a stable FPS (about 60+ FPS) for the first few minutes (which I estimated to be about 18-20 mins based on LoL gameplay), then after, this is where the drop occurs. It goes from a stable 60+ FPS to a mere 15-20 FPS.
This is even worse in TF2, where it goes from a stable 60+ FPS to a really low 7-20 FPS. The drop persists until I close both games.
CPU Usage is only 50-70% during gaming (due to turning off RacAgent and Superfetch) and temperature has only been 55 degrees when not in use; it goes to 80 degrees when gaming. I used SpeedFan to see the temperature to both its cores. GPU usage is at 70 degrees when not gaming, and at 85-90 degrees when gaming.
I have upgraded my graphics card to its latest, thinking that it would solve the problem. Sadly, it didn't.
I have run a full scan from AVG and Malwarebytes, and it showed no signs of infection. Thinking that AVG was the problem, I uninstalled it.
I have also defragged my PC via Disk Defragmenter. I also use CCleaner's Windows and Apps Cleaner, Registry Cleaner, Duplicate Finder and Drive Wiper, to no avail.
I have tried using a gamebooster (specifically Razer), and it did not help.
I have even tried setting my Power Option to High Performance, which, surprisingly, worsened my gaming experience.
I have possibly tried every fix, except cleaning it with a can of compressed air. My temperatures were fine so I assumed it isn't the case.
My PC was also reformatted in a nearby laptop repair shop recently due to a virus attack, so I have a lot of space left (and by that, I mean A LOT.)
I do not have a battery, currently, due to my previous battery being dead for about a year or so.
I am not sure if my PC is currently overclocked, but I remember not overclocking it ever since I used this.
I do not have any games other than League of Legends and Team Fortress 2.
I have ran League of Legends in this computer really fine before the reformat. I have recently downloaded TF2, and have used Chris' and m0re's configs for better fps, and at least it made it playable for the first few minutes before the drop kicks in.
My specs:
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001)
System Model: K50IN
BIOS: Default System BIOS
Processor: Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4300 @ 2.10 GHz
Display: NVIDIA GeForce G102M
Memory: 2046MB RAM
Page File: 1686MB used, 2649MB available
DirectX Version: DirectX 10
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
