it isnt ping lag, its fps lag, i forgot to mention it sorry

E6850 @ 3.0ghz is not enough to run tf2 smoothly on w7

get xp

damn i just got off windows xp -_-‘

I assume “lag” here means dropping to 110 from 120? Vista and E6850 @ 3ghz in my toaster with Chris’ dx9frames gives me easily over 90 fps on a 24 man server while not in the midst of the largest possible spam and even there it doesn’t drop below 60 normally.

This on a 24 player pub so it’s even better in 6v6.

but vista has better fps than w7, you can try it for urself

its like xp>vista>w7 even if w7 does load faster, its still a resource hog

so there is no way to fix it, accept for installing win xp 64 bit

XP x64 < windows 7

If you remove the fps cfg, do you suffer the problem ?

Please can you give more info on the problem, how low do framerates drop?

i just removed all of my configs, put everthing back to standard, and my framerate drops in a full server with 24 people on ctf_well from 121(locked) tot 50, with an fps config it basicly does the same.

i didnt had this problem when i had windows xp 32bit and was running 2 ghz of ram on it.

in a match (6 v 6 ) when it gets crowded (mid fights) it drops from 121 (locked) to 80/70 with fps config i didnt had the change to test it without the fps config.

thats normal, but why would u want 64bit xp, just use 32bit one

This. I’ve got the same gfx card as you, my cpu is a core i7 920, running dx9config. Lots of explosions = ~70 fps. Otherwise 240 and above.

then whats the point of using 4gb of ram memory ? if a 32bit system only detects 3.1 (or something like that)

so basicly u need a 5000 euro pc to run tf2 on 100 fps with no drops -_-‘
