Hello, I have a Palit GTX 560 Ti that I recently bought in Hong Kong. I took out my old 9800 GT and put in the new card, and after a few problems getting the computer to recognise the card (there was a cable missing in the box, so I had to make a new one) I got everything working. I installed the drivers that came with the card, and all was good. I got 80+ FPS in Modern Warfare 2. However, and I am not sure about this, I think I upgraded to the 275.33 drivers form NVidia. Everything was still good, but then after a day or two, I started to et moments in MW2 where the frame rate would drop drastically to the low 30's. But this is not a normal drop: It would stay at 30, then drop to 1 very quickly, then back up to 30. All in less then a second. And it would happen continually.
So I did the usual: Checked the GPU temperature, gettin 34 idle and 56 while running MW2. Defragged the hard drive, checked for viruses. Scanned other forums for ages. Rolled back to the drivers that came with the card. Still no luck.
It's very strange: in GTA IV EFLC, frame rate is high, e.g. this only happens in MW2. But sometimes in TA IV EFLC, the FPS will drop very low for a few seconds, then go back up to where it was. But it wasn't a temperature problem, the card wasn't that hot. Also, if I run a quick game of MW2 where it is just me in the game, on my own, the FPS is back to 80.
So it seems that only the online gameplay of MW2 is affected, sometimes other games are slightly affected.
Altogether now: WTF?!
