Hello,
First let me start by saying that I have just built a new computer. I'm using a 9800gt and was recently getting an average of 60fps, sometimes in the upper 100fps, when playing WoW on max settings. I recently logged into WoW and now get an average of 15 fps when the game is on max settings. My lat in the game is very low, so it isn't a lag problem. I think it might be my graphics card but I am not sure. My first question is how do I tell if my graphics card isn't working? My dvi is still plugged into the card and I still get a picture on the monitor so does this mean my card is still working? I have had trouble with my computer starting first on my build and then later when I installed an eSata to the back of my computer. When this happened my computer would not show any activity on my screen and the fan of my graphics card would keep speeding up and then back down about 10 seconds apart. After I would take the card out and put it back the computer would tell me that the overclocking had failed, even though I had done no such thing. Is there some setting or something wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
