Ok, how do you people get such high FPS in CS?

I get a flat, 71FPS consistent - I think it's capped in HL somewhere, but i don't know the command. - It used to be at 60 'cause it was matched to the refresh rate of my monitor, I disabled that, but now I sit at 71FPS.

Any ideas of the command?

yes it would anarot,

Deeper, opengl has the cap on at 71fps but direct3d doesn't. I prefer opengl personally coz it isn't microsoft and is much more fun to program in.

That is the driver thing that comes on the Motherboard CD? Yeah that is just an AGP filter thingy for win2k. It does improve it but it wouldn't make that much difference, and I have only seen that on Asus boards.
