After all that, I really think you need to upgrade the power supply, it doesn't have enough watts. I have had a problem like this before and an upgraded power supply fixed it.
I got a new power supply 10 minutes ago. It's 1000 Watt one , but i still have the lagging problems.

Have you tried adjusting the settings in the games? Also, is it video lag or internet lag?

Had a feeling you didn't, just thought that the country in which you do reside would have something along the same lines. Yeah, ask to talk to the manager. You sound quite savvy about these things and I don't want to insult your intelligence but before anything like returning the unit make sure that you put in the original PSU in as supplied. Some companies have a clause in their purchase agreements that if an item has been modified by the purchaser then you have accepted the item and they are under no commitment to fix it etc... Trading standards or it's equivalent may not be able to help then.

It's video lag and yes i've tried adjusting the settings. The game starts with 70 fps and suddenly for 7 seconds it falls to 3 fps. I can't move the mouse too.

Ok. I took the pc back to the shop. They said that they'll replace my MOTHERBOARD and not the processor because it's really good. They'll put on another ASUS Motherboard. Old Motherboard: M2N - VM DVI New Motherboard: M3A-H/HDMI They are sure that it'll work and i hope it does. Please check out the motherboard and let me know what you think.

Looks ok, but I'm not very knowledgeable on these things so I'll just say I hope that the new motherboard works out!

On the ASUS Support Site it says that this was build to support the 6400+ AMD processors because the other models didn't.
^_^ Thanks.

Here's hoping all's well but if not can you please post your FULL MSINFO (not DXDIAG) There could be a program running that's causing the problem

Nah. It appears that M2N-DVI doesn't support AMD Athlon 64 x2 6400+. It supports every processor till AMD Athlon 64 x2 6000+. But the new motherboard M3A-H/HDMI supports the processor.
