What happend with the accident with the cooler?
How do you know the new system is slower? 3dmark or some other test software?

well i guess 3d mark just test the "output"
i dont tested my system bevore..
the accident was a short circuit on the graphik card because of some wrong screws..
and i know its slower because the hole laggs in bf 2142 wasnt there with the old system

New drivers, did you reinstall windows? if not, you MUST do this when you get new hardware such as a new mobo (graphic cards you can get away with)

try a different graphics card, if it was a short circuit, im sure its causing the problem, try a friends in your system, or an old one to see if it works.

But mainly install new drivers and make sure you have a fresh copy of windows installed

When I changed my Mobo I didnt have to reinstall windows all I had to do was update the Northbride, Southbridge, Memory controllers, IDE controllers, etc, when it was all finished all worked incredibly well. I didnt lose any data and the system runs much better now.

Its usualy better to reinstall windows, because when you install it, it configures itself to your current hardware config. So when you reinstall, it does it nice and fresh, obviously computers do what they like, what you did may work for you but not for others... such as me i gave up and just went for the reinstall lol

I cant think what it would be, but the motherboard wouldnt be causing the lag, its got to be one of the other components

What graphics card do you have? from my experience, nvidia ones have this tendancy to turn on anti-aliaising and anistropic filtering and such by itself, just tweak the drivers a bit.
