More Information

I recently bought this new PC(not much of a homebuild :P),
but I didnt buy any OS with it, so I dont have any Software support on it.
With this PC I recently bought I have FPS drops in games every few minutes...
For example: I run CSS on 100-140 FPS, then after a few minutes of playing, my FPS drops down to 5-10 for a few seconds(which is a lot in CSS terms :P), and the FPS doesnt come up when I look at the ground(which it normally should do)
However, I also discovered that my CPU( AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ 89W) and my motherboard(M2N-X plus) have some kind of conflict with some people, and so also with me...
I found some instructions else on the internet, but they all dont work, and There's always no conclusion or just: "it's fixed now" by the original poster... So I have absolutely nothing to work with...
Here are some full system specs:
Asus AM2+ M2N-X Plus Mobo
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Dual Core Socket AM2 (2 x 3 Ghz / 2 x 1MB Cache)
AMD Boxed CPU Cooler
A-brand 2048MB Geheugen DDR2 800 CL5 Dual Channel
2 x 250 Gigabyte harddisk (7200/300) S-ATA2 met 2MB Cache in RAID 0
Nvidia Geforce 9600GT PCI-E met 512MB DDR3
DVD-Rewriter 20x Speed Dual layer
Cardreader All In One
5.1 Sound On-board
Front Audio
4x S-ATA II met RAID 0,1,5 support
On-board Ethernet 10/100Mbit Controller
Wifi(54Mbit)
6 x USB2.0 on-board
 
 
If anyone would help me, I would be so thankfull
 
PS: From sunday morning(13th) I will be on vacation for 3 weeks, so I wont be able to reply in that timespan

FYI, you can google "pc wizard" for the specs.
 
Google "super pi mod" and do 1MB. How many seconds? Google memtest and do 5+ passes.
 
What's the psu make and model?

I've got 40.960s for the 1M pi test, what should I do with the PC wizard specs btw? :P
Memtest has to be bought(Althoug i could be mistaking, I only looked at 1 website)
and I dont know what PSU I have ATM, although I'm expecting an e-mail from the manufacturer with the PSU make and model

You got to be sh*tting me. 40 secs for 2GB ram in 1MB test is way too long. My o/c at 4Ghz with 4gigs takes about 15 secs and I consider that slow. 10-12 secs would be best for my pc. You might want to google cpuz and tell me what speeds the cpu & ram are running at. Look at the cpu & memory tabs.
 
I mean you can copy and paste the specs from pc wizard instead of typing them out.
 
You can look at the side label on the PSU for make & model.

You have same problem as i had. I have the same motherboard and 6400+.
The motherboard supports only 5400+/5600+ or less (dont remember which). You gotta change motherboard or processor.

 

edit: noticed that your processor was 89W so no watt-problem
