So yesterday I changed my GPUs thermal paste because it was really hot and made my games lag very much when reaching its peak. I changed the paste, tried to play some games and everything seemed to work fine, without any lag. Today I once again played some games (the same as before) but this time I started to lag again, just like before I changed paste. Does anyone have any idea of what could be the problem?
Thermal paste I used: Arctic Silver 5
Ive read that the paste can take up to 200 hours before reaching its full effect, but this doesn't seem to be the case since it worked fine just after I applied it.

The drop in the voltage limit appears when I tabbed out of the game (Battefield 3) or closed it
