    Are you running the latest drivers? Check for updates via the Nvdia settings panel and install update if one available

    Are you connected to an external monitor?

    Do you have global settings set to use the Nvidia card, not the intel hd4000?

    Have you tried tweaking settings in BF3? the 675mx is a beast of a card (i own it) but some very demanding games (BF3, Witcher 2, Far Cry 3) may not run smoothly with all settings on ultra - you may need to dial down anti-aliasing, etc 1 notch

    Check to make sure indexing or some other background app is not blocking i/o.

    You could also download MSI afterburner to monitor temps during gameplay, is 70C during gameplay or after you quit the game?

    How long have you had the card/computer? Still under warranty I assume?
