ETF2L – Latest activity in “High fps but still not smooth” https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/ Reply by mumu https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418511 Quoted from envy
[...] You should have mention it in the first place. If you used some BIOS option like "auto turbo overclock", then you did it wrong. Google "q8400 overclock", read at least 10 guides and you should be fine. And if you don't have a custom cooling system, better not to.
I followed a half decent guide that I found but it didn't really explain much in depth, it would be nice to really understand what each option change affects.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418511 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 18:16:39 +0100 Reply by m0hawkdude https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418510 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418510 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 18:04:12 +0100 Reply by rumia https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418485 Quoted from Will
Un-overclocked my CPU and its fine now, not getting as much fps but smooth so seems fine for now. I dont know what went wrong with my overclock tbh, anyone got a good guide? Could shite RAM affect anything?

I have the same issue, holler if you figure something out.
Re-installed tf2 and got rid of a lot of crap on my HDD. Switched back to native resolution and went for highframes rather than maxframes Basically cleaned up my whole PC, did windows updates, got a better anti virus that I will actually keep up-to-date (ESET), uninstalled games that were taking up shit loads of space. Tbh a reformat would be better but dont have time for the PC to be out of action for long due to uni work. Finally I overclocked my CPU a bit (from 2.66 to 3.0Ghz) as I feel my CPU lets me down a lot in most games. Need to buy some more RAM but not much DDR2 available so might wait until I have enough money for a complete CPU+Mobo+RAM upgrade. EDIT: Game is smooth now for me, but other people player models are really weird and jittery, also when speccing other players its jittery like fuck can barely see whats going on]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418452 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 15:00:18 +0100 Reply by mumu https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418448 Quoted from Sketch
Get 120 Hz like other people. Clean mouse and mouse pad Your hardware is ancient.
Had a 120Hz monitor for well over a year now, mouse and mousepad are clean as fuck that has no relation to the problem at all anyway. Hardware is all I can afford at the moment, not exactly rolling in money being a student. Thanks for the really helpful advie]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418448 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 14:56:22 +0100 Reply by Sketch https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418444 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418444 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 14:15:52 +0100 Reply by croaton https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418443 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418443 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 14:13:35 +0100 Reply by raugnioz https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418435 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418435 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 13:35:54 +0100 Reply by mumu https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418434 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418434 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 13:29:15 +0100 Reply by Juniorsatan https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418388 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418388 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 05:49:00 +0100 Created by mumu https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-23428/page-1/?recent=418511#post=418386 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=23428&post=418386 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 04:43:15 +0100
