monitor temps while playing with msi afterburner

if the cpu gets too hot your fps will drop, yes

keep an eye on cpu temps while you play, you really dont want to go higher than 80 degrees



70 degrees while under full load for a video card is cool

you said you went from 70 fps to 45


did you turn on hairworks or super resolution?



turn up anti aliasing settings?
