Lower your graphic settings - The easiest thing to do.Make sure it matches with your own graphics card. Make sure you have the proper driver installed - The most recent driver from the company that made your graphics card is NOT always the right one.Find a more recent graphics card (doesn't have to be top-end, but mid-range at least is preferable) and, after making sure it's compatable with your computer, purchase it and have it installed. Upgrade your graphics card - The surefire way.You say you reformatted your hard drive, but did you restore TF2 install from an archive, or redownload it proper from Steam? If you havent, do a fresh install of TF2 by deleting local content, then delete the TF2 folder in your steamapps directoryĪs I said in my comment above, there are a few things you can try if your framerate is proving to be choppy. I've noticed some other slow down while hitting the harddrive. The harddrive might be an issue as well since my computer is so old. I have installed the correct drivers for my hardware but I could start over and try again. Yeah I was thinking I am just out of date for everything and its time for a new machine, but I'm not ready to drop the cash for a new rig without trying to fix it. So maybe start pulling out hardware to see if it goes away? Turns out it was a problem with the wireless network card and my video card together.
I had this problem years ago with Knights of the Old Republic and maybe 1 or 2 other games. Does this chugging and freezing happen with anything else? If so, it might be a sign your hard drive is going. Did you reinstall the proper drivers for the proper hardware, and not just the most recent drivers made by that company? Could be improper driver install. Valve constantly updates TF2, and any number of new things, from particle effects, to number of players, to server-side plugins, could be reducing your framerate. I used to be able to play TF2 pretty smoothly on my current computer, and recently started experiencing the same choppiness. 5 Years Old tells me it's probably out of date by now. I also recently reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled drivers and everything trying to fix this issue, but to no avail.ġ. I do not think this is a hardware issue since I used to be able to run TF2 perfectly at high settings. It is super annoying since it happens so consistently. Starting about a year ago, I started getting a consistent framerate chug/freeze every second or so. I have a fairly old gaming computer (5 years old or so) that I built, and used to play TF2 just fine.
