In any case, I would heavily reccomend cleaning that pc out, who knows how much dust you got in there to make your gpu load at 130c. That is an INSANE temperature. If after cleaning the dust off the gpu and making sure the fan is working, if your temps are still amazingly high, I would reccomend reconfiguring the fans in your case (make sure they are all, or mostly, blowing air OUT of the case) and buying either an aftermarket gpu cooler or a pci slot loading cooling fan. Thses cooling fans work extremely well for cooling single core cards, and cost about $8 on newegg.
You cannot logically say that I don't get 230fps because you have no clue at all. I would gladly show you a screenshot, but I don't feel like it... I said maxes out, which means only sometimes in open areas.

And JFK the reason I asked the FPS was because he didn't really state his actually FPS amount sin his original post, at least when I read it.

If you played or knew CS well you'd know you can run that game on almost any video card - it is highly CPU intensive, that is where it takes advantaged of my OC'ed e6300.
