Overclocking it.
MSI Afterburner is pretty good, don't start moving around stuff though, read carefully what you can change and can't change

thanks but do i need to have like a good motherboard that can handle it like with cpu OC?
because i have a friend so used that program and now he run bf3 on high perfect i can tooo but litle lag sometimes

Performance gain of overlclocking a graphics card is like 5%. And if you suddenly smell something weird out of your computer you can buy a new graphics card (happened to me).

^this
you can either use some voltage mods available on overclocking forums or you play a bit with tools that came with the graphic cards (afterburner, trixx or whatever)

but its not worth it since you can kill your gpu extremely fast if you use stock cooling without watching after the vrms and stuff.

Probably you lowered the graphics and installed a new driver.

I don't think 20+ FPS is possible with overclocking an air cooled graphics card.

but then it isnt worth to do that or?

whats the max temp that you experienced on your gpu?
