ive been having some really bad low fps problems in all areas, mmorpg's normal games, etc. when i first got the pc i was getting 500fps in a game now i get 70-90 and all other games slow down, i also found slowdowncpu.exe which wasnt detected by any of my spyware/virus removers and deleted it, it might be because i use 2048x1526 resoultion when this monitor only allows 1600x1200, but i dont think the problem is hardware related because when i use system restore to an earlier date my fps are down to 30 and when i undo the sys restore it returns to the still low 80-100, any help fixing this id really appreciate, thx in advance

I'm fairly sure you were NEVER even close to 500FPS! How about listing the specs to this supercomputer?

maybe hes talking about Quake3 arena. anyway that a very unlikely that a game can reach 500fps. tell us the game that you play and the system that you own so that we can assist.
