Hello! :hello:

Newcomer here :)

I've got this problem that when i play Battlefield BC2 i suddenly get fps drop after 5 min playing. After some time i may not have any FPS drop at all and the game runs smoothly again. This doesn't seem to happen in singleplayer, only in multiplayer. I have a cooling pad on my system so cooling shouldn't be the problem. Listed temperature will be listed with PC specs further below.

I also play a lot of different games and it doesn't happen there either. I play WoW on Ultra with 60 fps (No shadows).

PC Spec:

Intel Core i3-380m
NVIDIA Geforce GT540m 1GB
6GB DDR3

Temp on heavy load in BC2 is max 75*C (performance only decreases at 85*C)

I hope you guys could help me with this problem!

Thanks and have a nice day!

Hmm, could be.. I can try a different connection tomorrow. But again, it doesn't happen in other games :)

The FPS drop is constantly for some time and then it shoots up again.

Problem is solved :) Found the solution myself.

Simply took the laptop home to my place (was at my gf's place at the time) and the problem didn't happen there cause the place is a lot lower temp. It was because of overheating in the small room my laptop was in.

Topic can be closed, wanna thank those who have been helping :)
