I only get 60 fps running HL on geforce3 t1200!!!!!

[mrpants]

I feel like a moron becasuse when i run half life i can only get 60 fps on a Aopen geforce3 ti200 with 128 ddr. I am using the the 29.42 driver on windows xp. I have tried taking off vertical sync on openGL off and i only get 70 fps. I have tried running Refreshlock, but i only get like 72 fps!! Does windows xp lock the fps? Do i need coolbits? What the hell is going on! i need help!!!

Not at 60fps it doesn't. The default is (or was) 72fps, I believe.

So why do you feel like a moron? It's not your fault, 72fps should be enough. I know people who can kick butt at < 40 fps...

don't blame yourself. Try another game, if it's faster, you can be sure that your card and your pc rock, blame it on HL and keep playing.

You need to open the console and type: fps_max xxx where you replace the xxx with the max number of frames you want. You should be able to put up to 100 there.

ahh now this is the kind of thread I like, people complaining about their fps rather than 3dmark score

anyway, yea, your fps is locked, do what they said.
