FPS Issues?
So I just moved the other day and I tried getting on CSS for the first time since the move and my fps start out at 120 ish and once I'm alive and playing my fps drops to about 30 or 40 and just gets extremely choppy. I ran a video stress test, and lowered some settings but it's still complete crap.
I also opened up the case and everything is fine, nothing overly dusty or not running (at least from what I can tell). The only thing I can think of is the fact that I'm running off wireless, but I figured that would be ping and not fps.
Any ideas?

Re: FPS Issues?
See if the issue persists with a direct wired connection to the router, if possible.
Any recent change in video drivers? If so, roll back to the previous drivers and see if that helps. Also, use some type of software to monitor your video card's temperature (e.g., HWMonitor) and make sure it's not a heat issue. Since there's a possibility your move knocked something loose, I'd suggest you remove and re-seat the video card and all GPU power connectors."A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed."

Re: FPS Issues?
I think I figured it out. It was only against 3 people but my fps was locked at 125 again.
Turned my wireless extender from an extender to just participating in the network. I guess it's basically functioning as a glorified wireless card for my PC.
Brought my speed test from about 1.5mb/s to about 6, so hopefully that's all I needed.
Thanks for the help sir! (The HWM Monitor is spiffy)

I don't understand how your internet connection has anything to do with frames per second. They are completely separate.

Clean your pc, hardware, software and registry.
Update drivers, delete useless stuff.
Have at least 25-30% HDD space free.
Have 40-50% ram free.
Make sure if you're on a notebook, to have it have proper ventilation, put a book under it, so it rises, lame, but works. Or better yet, buy a laptop cooler thingy. If you're on a desktop, buy some fans, won't kill you.
Bottom line from me is, if it worked before, and doesn't anymore, it's a maintenance issue.

Re: FPS Issues?
I tried turning off SLI, removing the two graphics cards and swapping their locations, re-enabling SLI and still nothing.
I can't figure out if it's something config related that suddenly changed, or if my computer is going crazy... Checked for any recent installs and the only ones I have are drivers from the 16th and I know I've played between then and now and didn't have an issue.
