So, I recently built a new PC and in TF2 it seems like I am getting extremely low FPS no matter what the graphic settings.
Machine is: AMD X2 5600+ (dual 2.8) GigaByte M61P-S3, 2GB Gskill DDR2-800 (5-5-5-15), OCZ 700W PS, Dual WD SATA2 7200RPM Drives in RAID 0, Running XP SP2, Direct X 9c Through GeForce 8800GT 512 to a LG 22"WS @ 1680x1050.
In TF2 I get 100+ FPS at Spawn and in intense action it can drop to ~25 FPS. This seems unusual.
I have updated all drivers including Chipset, Video (New, Old, & Beta) Tried disabling everything in msconfig, updated BIOS FW, tried various BIOS configs, unplugged peripherals and anything else I can think of. Even if I run the monitor @ 1280x1024 it does the same thing.
TF2 can get extremely slow when theres about 12 people on screen all firing rockets and fire at each other. I have everything on low with no AA @ 1600x1050 and my fps drops to 60 or so, maybe less in intense situations.
It hovers around 100-250 at spawn or when walking about.

with a 2900 pro that game, with 16x AA at 1280x1024 at all times on max settings, never gets slow enough for me to notice.
(btw, its a great game ) does it vary if you change the gfx settings down to bottom?
