i get 400fps-300fps but then when it loads chunks it seriously goes to 0fps for a few seconds, if i was doing something when the game decides to take a vacation id always lose or die.

My computer usually gets around 40 fps and my fps hasn't changed since 1.0, so it would have to be your operating system because I can't really think of any other reason.
For anyone else with this problem: Installing the mod optifine (Ultra version) and choosing the multi core option will speed up world loading and destroy that stuttering that the OP is talking about (You need more than 1 CPU core, it also increases FPS).
To all of you people who think Notch is still working on the game, he stopped working on Minecraft in late 2011. Get your facts straight and stop spamming his twitter about Minecraft updates.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
Edit: OP's problem was fixed, /thread
If your machine is overheating because of sounds it's broken. I haven't noticed any performance drop and I have a 1100 Radeon GPU and 3 GB ram
