And if change AA or HDR settings and head back to normal. I'm repared that i have less lag when the AA is already at 2x or Off (like the FPS from 60 drop only to 12/15 FPS). I'n my case i get 60~ FPS on Highest settings but out of nowhere or when i start the map the fps drop to below 10 then it's unplayable, i can even navigate trought the menu because the mouse is slow.

Below is a summary of my system (Sorry I'm not at the machine right now so I can't be more precise.) I'm only using a NVIDIA GT 640 but I know this card works fine with TF2 under windows.

It still stutters here and there but definitely made a big difference.


Basically the hl2_linux process was chewing up all the processor time and the game was unplayable. I think I've also had similar symptoms to this problem. Total Hard Disk Space Available: 679553 Mb Driver: NVIDIA Corporation GeForce GTX 560 Ti/PCIe/SSE2
