Default Problem: ATI Radeon 9600XT 128mb

Computer specs:

Pentium4
1.5ghz
512mb ram

when i play counter-strike 1.6, i don't get more than 60fps

my ATI Radeon 9600XT is a few months old, finally got my friend to reformat my computer and still did not achieve over 100fps on my computer

already know and tried in video settings and counter-strike 1.6 console:

vert sync off
fps_max 500
developer 3

got any ideas? suggestions? :eh?:

Is it stuck at 60fps? Or will it barely reach there?

it's stuck

when i'm at the main windows it tells me i'm getting above 100fps

then i enter a game ... <60fps, sometimes drops to 30fps if too many ppl are around or other stuff

i even made my own game and tested out how many fps i would get, still the same

if i look at the sky i'll get 100fps, but that's crap

Wierd how it will lower to 30fps.. Your comp should be able to get 60fps constant since CS 1.6 isn't really a new game.. You could try this command in the console to get higher max fps so it doesn't limit you (type this into console) "fps_max <number>" and see if this will help you out.

you need to tell cs to show more fps it is either fps_max 150 or max_fps 150 (will set the fps to a max of 150). There are also many other tricks to getting higher fps..

my post is at the bottom..
Framerate problems :(
