i can't increase the fps over 60. i have the fps_max set to 200, but it won't go any higher. i changed from 32-bit to 16-bit for quality. are there commands in console that i need to change?

What are your computer specs? 60 fps might be as fast as your computer can go.

Most likely you have vertical sync on and a monitor refresh rate of 60, which is locking your fps at 60.

...and if you're using 60HZ refresh, you're missing out. Try at least 72 or 75. This is the minimum you need to get rid of screen flicker.

If you're monitor supports over 60Hz that is. Make sure first.

Developer 1 seems to help sometimes too.

Probably the refresh rate. Chances are if you havent changed it by now you dont know how. Also turning off vsync in ya graphics card properties will help. If that doesnt work, try www.gotfrag.com. Do a search for fps tweaks, theres a massive range of console commands that will reduce detail but improve perfomance

it is definantly the Vert. sync. causeing this ... I had the same problem

Oh man, I haven't played CS for like 2 years. I think I lost so oftern because the people I was playing with/against played the game for at least 8 or 9 hours a day. I couldn't compete with that kind of devotion. Agreed on the verticle synchro diagnosis. Unless you have an older monitor.
