[LuckyCombatPotato]

lol is this pc connected to the internet ?

[LK3da]

yes, but i did only install the display drivers without all this additional apps checking for updates and stuff.
and i never had issues with CS or BFBC2

why change a running system !

[LK3da]

now i know why i never check for new drivers, since installation of this new ones my fps in CSS is down by ~30% sometimes getting low as 20/30fps.

[LK3da]

hmm, or maybe driver set all settings to "best quality" and all finters and AA on
