How does it lag? Is there video lag (lines), you get a bad ping on all servers, just playing with bots your movements lag... ? Make sure that your vid card, and more importantly your motherboard's drivers are up to date, even your lan port.

set cl_drawfps 1 -- what framerate are you getting?
set netgraph 1 -- are there lots of black bars?

If it's not the framerate, and it's not the network connection, what kind of lag do you have?  Does it lag if you run a game locally with bots?

So you mean it freezes?  It could be an overheating issue.

Drivers... simply put, i had old ati drivers for my little x300 and pb2 was crashing like nuts tho it wasn't crashing on my other intergrated gfx comp so i updated and it works really nice now (still haven't solved the random mohaa crashes that happens sumtimes, i think since its summer i gotta dig up all those fans which i took out in winter :o)... here are links for drivers for nvidia. since the 7 series is a new one, the cd which came with ur card prob is like the first driver for 7 series and is outdated... download new ones from here

www.nvidia.com

Never install stuff while windows update is at work, if you install something as simple as Firefox while SP2 is installing I remember windows freaking out and not letting me delete that file even after reboot, all my apps went corrupt and I had to re-install.
