Low FPS in some games

[Akiyama]

So, as the topic states.. I'm getting a lot less FPS in some of the games I'm playing lately. Not sure of the reason. I recently received a new Monitor (this Samsung 27" LED) for Christmas and it replaced my previous 22" Samsung. Obviously, I don't think a change in monitor should have effected the FPS I'd get in games, but for some reason.. it is. I went from using DVI (which the previous monitor supported) to HDMI with the new monitor, and on both of those games, I'm getting about half the regular FPS I was before. I really don't know what to do here.

Any help would be appreciated.

Only thing I can think of is, if you change your game resolution higher from like the 22 inches what 1280x1024? 800x600? to something like 1920x1080? 1920x1280? 1920x1440?

that would cause a FPS loss, especially if you have a older video card, that cannot churn out the power for the bigger res.

I doubt dvi to hdmi would really cause a fps loss on its own....

Nah, I basically play everything windowed, and previously on the 22" I'd run basically 1280x720 to now where I'm running 1280x720.. just have more room to play with on the desktop, I'm seeing the big FPS loss there. I've got a HD7870 (I think it is) so the GPU power isn't the issue either.

I dunno what else is up though.
