I own the little brother CPU (x4 945, 3 GHz so not OC), 4GB RAM, HD4870 and never had any issues running tf2. 120 FPS is a joke, so is 200 or 300 FPS (full HD). The CPU is definitely not the bottleneck here.</blockquote>

also had that cpu, and yes it is the bottleneck]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[some of the following is theory, some of it true and some wannabe expert talk:

when we use chrismaxconfig, we let the CPU do the mainwork in TF2 (lowering AA, AF, texture-details, ...) (&#60;-- wannabe expert talk)

in theory it is not intelligent to just use chrisconfig for optimal fps gain. (&#60;--  theory don&#039;t kill me for it)

You have to check every aspect of your system and the adjust the settings to it.

I tried it in &#34;Dear Esther&#34; . In the tunnel passages it started to stutter. But when I maxed AA and AF it stopped. (&#60;-- true story)

And I have also 955 and 5870]]></description>
