what exactly do you mean by lag? bad FPS or internet connection?

FPS is the problem, when i play a game it works fine then out of no where it lags for like about 40 seconds (bad tho) on games like gta sa, gears of war, unreal tournament, fallout 3.

It may be worth checking the temps inside your case, both idle and in game, to make sure your components overheating aren't the cause of the problem. Also ensure your graphics drivers are updated, and you have the latest version of directx installed.

You can use Speedfan to monitor your temperatures, find that here - SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer
