Hi all!
I am the owner of MBP 2.4 - 8600m gt - 4gb I was using it for around one year with no problem but and from some time I have noticed a big drop of the performance...
On the boot camp I have COD4 which was running smoothly with 80-125fps but now it is barely 30fps with the same configuration... same story with games like TF2 and L4D..
What I have tried after this drop:
* format C: and getting fresh system
* different graphic drivers
* playing with directx settings
* checking the power management
* reset PRAM, SMC
* Apple Hardware Test
* playing without battery
* tuning fun speed
nothing helped...!
I was reading that those MBP have problems with bugged GeForce
( * Distorted or scrambled video on the computer screen
* No video on the computer screen (or external display) even though the computer is on) but mine MBP is not having any of those...
I was also looking online for similar problems and I have found those topic touching same issue with the same model of MBP...:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1792525
some other topics as well but I cannot find them right now.. the problem is that nobody knows why this strange thing occurs...
Please help me?
