Hi Guys!
I am having some problem with my GTS 250. Since last couple of days, i used to have black screen while playing game (Dota2). I had to restart my PC to get the display back. So I figured it needed cleaning and thermal paste. I took it to a technician and got it cleaned and replaced the thermal paste. Now the display doesn't go black. But the fps are seriously low, 9-10 to be exact.
Can anyone guide me what could possibly the reason? Before the cleaning, fps were fine.

Any help will be much appreciated. I know that its an old card. My budget was and is the reason.
