Hey guys, I have just been speaking with a guy on irc and he told me that the best settings for tf2 are not always the highest?

I play 1280 x 1024 everything on full
I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250
rate 35000 67 67

What settings and rates do you find run the smoothest?

I have a pretty powerful pc and i have to use an fps config to make it smooth

This, as retarded as it is.

so you think a fps config is the best thing to use?

The best thing to use is the thing you feel comfortable with.

You should use sufficently low settings so that you fps is constantly high enough even in heavy fire fights with a lot of enemies.
Try to see if it is enough to play on some lower settings, if not then use an fps config.

An fps config can also be recommended for another reason, namely that those usually turn off a lot of effects and background stuff that just distracts you from focusing on the enemies and important stuff.

Some people also like to play in a very low resolution. I played in 640×400 for a while.
Now I’m using the full 1920×1200 on my screen and really like that.
Try some different resolutions and see if it feels better. Also, using a lower should improve your fps a lot.

Mmmm… 150 fps on max settings, that’s the best setting for tf2

Also, a very high viewmodel FOV is extremely important to become a pro. When you see your character’s arms float by themselves in the air and when the animation looks weird – you have reached the spot where you perform your best!

Edit: What Iller said!

keep your FPS above your refresh rate. everything else is preference.

just keep your fps steady, that is all.

Depends what people prefer, change the settings play with them for afew weeks etc. See how you are. Just make sure your FPS is consistently high, if all settings on max is what you want then go for it. Just make sure that ur fps is high enough so you get smooth gameplay.
