I have to get back on my old computer! config :p4 2.4ghz, 768Mb ddr,gforce 5700le 256mb ddr

game is still laggy in 640*480 and low details. Is there any other option to disable for performances?

No more HL2, if I can't increase performances.

i've an idea :lol: .
Do a website with only a google advert.
We'll clik on it until you can buy a 7600gt.
Or i can give you my 6200TC, but you'll have to pay sending. ^^

Anti, I ve got a Geforce 5750 128Mb, if you want it:).. I played on it without lags on relatively nice settings.. its a PCI-Express card, not a VGA, so it will work much faster than your 5700le... but... erm.. you are in belgium:)

because I spoke with him about the comp I use now.

Anyway no question about buying gpu,power source or comp! Are there any in-game settings I can disable for better performaces. I'm sure there are some possiblities

Ok:).. Im sure there is a "tetris mode" option in HL2Dm, when all of the graphics converts into tetris squares:)).. Sorry to make jokes about it, Anti, but I just cant resist:)

cl_smooth 0 can help you to gain some fps

you can bios flash that card to a 5750 ultra and overclock it more, flashing it also helps with cooling if i remember right as i used to have one.

overclock cpu as well, and google for the best drivers for that card, newer ones are not going to be the best i thinks :)
