[wottkas]

Hello,

i have the following problem: i run a 24 Slot TF2 Server, if i fill the server with Bots/Players the fps drops down.

CPU:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+
2x 1024 MB DDRII PC667 RAM
fps_max 500



hope u can help.

This is quite normal. Bots normally cause the FPS and overall server quality to drop significantly because SRCDS has to work much harder to run the AI's for the bots.

What's the ghz per core on that processor?

if I get that correctly it is a 2.8 GHz Windsor (released in 2006). not a very recent cpu... but I think it should handle 24 human players (but not 24 bots, most cpus cannot do that).

1000hz kernel works nice for me
