Frost206 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) I just got done reformatting, time to install CoD4 and see how this baby runs :) EDIT Running it around 50-80 FPS average. And I still have that same problem.. My FPS drops to like 20. Edited September 8, 2008 by Frost206 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Any Ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 That looks like gpu downclocking. To see how the problem originates, you need to get an idea of your gpu temps. Install ntune and use it while playing games to monitor your temps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) Alright. EDIT: How exactly do I monitor them? And, my screen is cut off on Ntune for some reason. Looks like this http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm158/Exanthos/ntune.png Edited September 8, 2008 by Frost206 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew55 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I honestly don't know what to say besides reinstall nvidia monitor. I have never seen that before. Odd, what version of ntune is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew55 Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 As I said, this looks like GPU downclocking due to powermizer and I want to see this problem resolved once and for all, so lets hope this works: Try disabling powermizer using this guide (has many images): http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=261929 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 (edited) Heh.. I still get it.. but alot less. I did that plus I cleaned out my fans :) They were real dusty hahaha. Hmph, now I got a new problem... It just randomly drops down to 5-10 FPS and its just ugly, I dont know why, everythings goin great and then BAM does that.

Andrew55 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Try using atitool's temp monitor, as I think it could be high temps causing it. Do you have to restart your computer for games to run as normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) Yeah, when I restart my computer, and open up a game it runs fine, I mean its been running fine ever since I cleaned my fans haha, but then again I still kinda get the random 5-10 FPS and then my old problem on top of that Ill record my temps when I come back from school.

Andrew55 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 So without a restart your games don't run fine after the initial drop in fps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 They drop and then go back to normal.. I accidentally clicked Max Core on ATITools and I had to reformat... Sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 That was rather unlucky, when you have access to the temps again, please report them, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 (edited) How do I check my temps? I dont see anything related to temps. EDIT I downloaded GPU - Z and I dont see any temperature sensors O.o http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm158/Exanthos/asd.png heres some more info http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm158/Exanthos/asdf.gif Edited September 13, 2008 by Frost206 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 It can't be that your gpu doesn't have thermal sensors because i'm almost positive it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost206 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Well... I guess it doesnt show, are you on MSN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
