Well i dont play many games on the pc and i've had these games for ever i mostly play HAlf Life 2, CS:S , Arma 2, and TEam Fortress 2.
I have a BFG GTX 260 OC Maxcore clocked at 640/1105/1405
on Half life 2 FPS dip to low 20's and average at about 26.. i have Vsync Forced OFF on newest drivers.
Team Fortress 2 is the same its always on 24 fps avg...
Arma 2 is the same...
even on CS:S i never go beyond 33 Avg...
The highest ive seen it go was 56

Anyways i use a 26 inch TV at the resolution of 1280x760 could that by why?

Its clocked at 590/1296,it seems you have OC'd it a little,return it to factory speeds and see if it helps

He probably meant 1280x720, AKA 720P, a quite common resolution for smaller or budget LCD TV's.

OP, sounds like your system may be overheating.
Try running your CPU and GPU at their stock speeds and see if that fixes anything.
If not, post back you idle and load temps for your CPU and GPU.
Use GPUz for GPU temps and Coretemp or Realtemp for the CPU.

I doubt temperature is the problem as PC Probe shows CPU temperature at 28 C and 33 on load... its pretty cold were i live
and the GPU is at around the same temp also...

Any clue what might be the problem?
