Certain parts of games are more intensive than others. For example, if you are playing an mmo, your frame rate is going to plummet when you go into a big city. In fps games, it will go down when there are lots of guys shooting and blowing things up all over the place. In rts games, it happens when armies get giant and there is all kinds of chaos on screen.

What you're going to have to do is turn your settings down or upgrade your computer.

Yeah, your hardware is kind of lacking. You're probably using a prebuilt, so you're going to have to give us some more spec details such as what psu you have, so we can help tell you what you can upgrade to. Your budget is needed too.
