Hardly 200? TBH a human eye can't detect the difference between 200 and 250 FPS.
BUT it does detect changes between 30 and 60. Read this: *www.tweakguides.com/Graphics_5.html
The Temps of the card are fine. It's running rather good considering it's Summer now.
<joke> Its gone man.. you cant even get it repaired.. I think the main board must have been burnt completely and the fans might be working so hard that it had to reduce some speed on games to increase the speed on the fans and hence the reduction in fps..
Sorry to hear your FPS drop though.. You may not even get an RMA for this.. </joke>
On a serious note, start using V-Sync in every game.. then u will stop complaining about your fps as all you can see is 60+ or -.

>.< 200 fps O.O
OP , you should start worrying only when your GPU temp reaches 85-90C consistently. You need only 60 fps in FPS game for smooth play. Till then Sayyonara.

I'm talking about in game fps. Don't think any of you've played the game. Anyways, thanks!
contrary to what you think I think most of us have played Cod4 along before and some of are still playing the MP part .. anyway, as you've said your gfx drivers are upto date this may be the reason why you're getting 50 FPS less in an old game like COD4 .. sometime newer gfx driver can create issues with older/newer game titles. SO if you are playing an old game mostly and if old driver is Ok there's no need to update to most recent version as the saying goes Don't fix it if it is not broken

Trust me I've played more Call of Duty games than you've heard
You haven't read the article in the link I posted. As for the problem, Topgear has explained it well.

200 fps what the hell :O COD4=modern warfare right? I never ran that on the 6850(played on my old rig) but you're getting 200 fps on it? :O What resolution are you playing at? 640X480?
And btw your temperatures are more than fine And yes,you can't really understand or interpret anything over 60-70 fps.
