the kernel HZ setting is not "the" timer. there is also the high-resolution timer (hrtimer) with a much higher precision. unless hrtimer is not working for some reason, the HZ will not limit your fps.

Quote:so is there a point limiting it via config to fps_max 250 or just leave it fps_max 0 and timer would do the same?

there is no point in having fps_max on any other value than 0, unless you run your box at its limits and you want to spare some few % of cpu load.

Quote:what is with the dynamic tickrate and the pingboost option? is it worth tryin it on tf2 servers too?

dynamic tickrate? you mean the kernel option? that will make the kernel's HZ dynamic, i.e. it will only tick if needed. so if your server already runs on hrtimers you can even further reduce the cpu/interrupt load by enabling this option.

there is no pingboost option for srcds, it is only present on hlds.
