Update on this,

After reading the recommendations i have troubleshot this a little bit more. In the keyclone setup for FPS i have it for 5 / 45. This used to work for me and still does. I tried putting all graphics down(i didnt have to do this normally) and problem was still occuring. It seemed to be random at first, sometime it would work well, then other times it wouldnt no mather what i tried. I finally figured out that, when my firefox browser is running it eliminates the FPS issue. I close it down and the FPS issues are back.

That makes no sense to me at all. But it works. I have noticed having a harder time keeping my FPS up to an acceptable level (50+) since the expansion. I am going to by another machine before chrismas. Quadcore vista 64bit 4gb ram (still undecided on the video card(s)) and hope this will resolve my issue. I am still intrigued why having firefox running fixes my issue... any ideas?
wtf? firefox generally hogs quite a bit of memory in my experience, not sure why that would IMPROVE your fps... take a screenshot of your performance tab in task manager when you're getting low fps, that might help us help you troubleshoot a little better.
