		<blockquote>Believe me, overclocking will most likely not give the gain in fps you will want. It tends not to be worth the risk of breaking your hardware, and it is VERY easy for the components to crap out, as all cpu chips are not created equally and some simply can not handle being pushed past stock clocks. This is  much more likely if you have never done it before.</blockquote>

This is simply not true. Neither have I ever heard of, nor have I ever witnessed, any piece of hardware being 'broken' by overclocking alone. The real risk is when overvolting. Look at manufacturer max VDD recommendations, and/or consensus on reputable overclocking forums.]]></description>

1. Yes OC'ing gave me the fps I wanted.
2. As long as you have reasonable voltages on your chip (and with that the temperatures) nothing can go wrong. Worst that could happen is a PC crash -&#62; rebooting, fixed.]]></description>

Now post your ip address.

Tho fo rizzle. Id reccomend, if you havent done it in forever, doing a fresh install of windows. Compters tend to get shitty over time and reisntalling windows 7  takes literally 20 minutes. The updates and installing little programs with Ninite takes another hour or less, and tf2 install is instant if you backup the correct files.

I reinstall windows every year or so, simply becuase im lazy when it comes to uninstalling unused programs, or keeping everything in order.

If thats too drastic, reinstall tf2/graphics drivers.

Use can of air to remove dust from computer/ graphics card as its possible the card is overheating.

Phone computer supplyer and tell them your computer is broken as see if you can get it replaced/ a discount on a new one.

May do a fresh install of windows since it has been quite a while.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[Hai.

Lately my game has been running quite poorly. 
Suddenly my game was extremely jittery but changing fps_max to 0 took care of the majority of this. I've since noticed that my game only stutters for a second or two when a player joins the server.

What ive tried:
Disabling ingame steam community
Checking temps
Scanning my computer for malware
Defragment GCFs aswell as the computer in general
Changing config. (Currently using chris' maxframes)

Specs:
AMD Phenom II X3 710 @ 3.4ghz
ATI HD 4890
8 gb ram.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.]]></description>
