Yeah, Chris' maxframes. 

<i>Quoted from Martin</i>
		<blockquote>Try to have the task manager open in the background when you're playing and then checking it when it stutters to see what's going on. I have a feeling it could be some power saving features for your cpu, you could try going in the bios and seeing what you could find.</blockquote>

There arent really any power saving functions in my BIOS, its a really shitty factory-installed one that I never bothered to flash, because I didnt wanna run the risk and I never needed it. 

But i'll try that yeah. I dont think it has anything to do with power-saving though, but rather the memory being hogged.]]></description>

yep, it has always been :/

already running it fullscreen. Windowed mode seems to make the stutters a liiiiiitle less frequent, but instead it introduces input lag for some reason, so thats sadly not an option, unless someone knows a fix for that.]]></description>

I will save formatting as a <strong></strong> absolute last resort solution if nothing else works, because I'm absolutely sure there are other solutions - especially when TF2 is the ONLY game where it happens.]]></description>

fucking this

Used to play TF2 with max settings in 32 player servers with 60-100 fps and now I get less than 30 fps on 6v6 matches even with fps boosting configs]]></description>

		<blockquote>The 2.4Ghz shouldn't be such a huge problem. I ran a dual core pentium 2.7 Ghz, and managed to get 50 fps min on mid fights in 6s and never go below 60 at all other times. Rather than getting stutters, he would just get lower framerate.

I'm 100% sure that my comp is clean, no virus.  
And I dont really get stutters in other games. I tried Strike Vector, well knowing that my comp wouldnt do well, and while my average fps was barely measurable, I didnt get a single stutter.  

There are no stutters either in light games like emulating old N64 games, Half-Life etc.  


I tried installing another reduced particles-pack today, and the game seemed to actually stutter less, but I can't say for sure.  The stutters were still enough to get my blood to boil and to get me killed a lot of the time.]]></description>
