    hello, just upgraded the RAM in my G73JH it was before 4x2GB DDR PC3-10600. Now its 2x2GB and 2x4GB PC3-10600 (GoodRAM). So after installing more ram i got a huge FPS drop in games and 3Dmark11. What it might be? MY videocard temps is colder for now... under load its just 60 degrees ... seems like its working just on 50%
    Thanks

    Try running the WEI test, then re-run your benchmarks.

    Which slots is the RAM installed? 1 should match 3 and 2 should match 4.
