[QUOTE="nubsta, post: 179626, member: 8259"] I've had this problem for a while, but no one can get to the bottom of it. I have a NVidia GeForce FX ..I forget model number/name, I can't check cuz I'm at school atm, but it's decent. Not an old model, but not a new one. When I was building my PC, I tested the vid card right away by installing steam + CS/CZ first, and played in a few servers. I was having OpenGL problems, and the new drivers weren't helping, but a friend helped me tweak the settings and I could play OpenGL the second day of the PC's birth. And I was getting an easy fps of 100 constant, and I was happy. Over the first week, I started to install musts like AIM, firefox, other PC games, etc. And while I was adding new programs, the fps would waver from 100 to 80, but I didn't put any mind into it. But like 2 or 3 weeks later, it was getting REALLY bad. Like, it would drop down to 30s and hover over 60, but it wouldn't go above 60 anymore. A month later, somehow, the fps jus sits at 60, doesn't move. Someone, I forget who, told me some command in console, and it did some check and it said I could hit up to 130 fps, but it won't. XD My cl_updaterate is at 30. I tried higher, but my ms jus goes up and no FPS difference. my fps_max is at 100..Erm..Yeah. I thought it was that my PC was moving too slow, cuz at the time I was working with 512 mb RAM. But I jus put in another 512 stick a weekend ago and now it's at 1gig, but still no FPS change. x.x Someone else with a GeForce had the same problem as I, he used to have 100 easy, and now he's stuck at 60 and can't fix it. I might switch to ATI vid card cuz people with ATI models say they still have 100 fps when they play, but I'm broke right now and hoping there's a chance I could fix the one I have right now. Help!! =( =( [/QUOTE]
