[CS 1.6] Lags when running at lower fps settings.

[z3r0gr4v17y]

Hi there!

I’ve got a pretty solid notebook with an NVIDIA 4080 and an Intel i9 13980HX. I’m getting a stable 1,000 fps at 1.6 without any lags, but I start experiencing lag when I set the fps lower than 200. For instance, if I set fps_max to 100, my 240Hz monitor feels like it’s only running at 30-40Hz.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? I know this game is 20 years old, but not everyone with a high-end PC faces this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

i tried ansio 0, vsync 0, setting hz to 60, 100 nothing helps (p.s. when i set frequency to 60 or 100 i get x2 more lags). I played with rate settigs, i change "rate to 25000, place of 100k", nothing helps. What can i try more? any help, information is like a gold for me.

I don't believe this has anything to do with Half-Life. It's more about how your monitor handles frame delivery, you could try enabling G-Sync or FreeSync, which synchronize the monitor's refresh rate with the GPU's frame rate. Micro stuttering and frame pacing issues would often happen when a game's FPS is significantly lower than the monitor's refresh rate.

Does toggling the "Lower Input Latency" option make any difference to the perceived lag?

Right now i disabled(off) this option from nvidia control panel, but problem exists. If i enable again problem exist again :/
