in gaming these card is powerful no lag a all with high settings played bf3 with and its powerfill card for good price but while on system and playing 3d movies or bluray or not using 3d i feel the system laging

another thing is when connecting both hdmi cable and dvi cable in the gpu card and try to switch between them like when switching from hdmi to dvi or dvi to hdmi from the monitor menu it switch but the desktop disappears and i can see the wall paper but i can't see the files and folders and i can't see folders unless i unpluged one of the cables or i switch it back to where it was on , any idea ??

A cursory glance suggests that your CPU is severely bandwidth starved by the DDR2 memory.

You could upgrade to an AM3+ board and some DDR3 ram, then overclock your CPU a bit, and eventually get a Piledriver when it is released later this year.
