You can download RivaTunerStatisticsServer to force a certain framerate.

you can change it from video option... disable vsync this will unlock fps

"fps_max number" as console command (not 100% sure if it works with L4D2 though).
Alternatively use "-refresh number" as launch settings for L4D2.

Im almost 100 percent positive it does not work in l4d2

Correct, fps_max doesnt work anymore.

I think that cvar is for the server side frame (gamestages)
It works just fine on the dedicated server.

im sure valve wouldnt intentionally add any cvars that requires sourcemod or any hidden cvar changer plugins installed. l4d games are only valve games where fps_max cvar is hidden for some reason, just like many other normal cvars/commands. (such as mat_picmip and r_lod) i dont see any reason why they hid them... also fps_max works as normal fps limiter, not server side only.

It does not requires sourcemod to change it, valve put "launcher" flag on it, so must be used when starting the server, using on the command line parameters.
fps_max : 300 : , "launcher" : Frame rate limiter

sm_cvar avoid the need to restart the server, thats all.

oh never knew that. sadly that doesnt work when using on client game...game defaults it immediately to 300. :/

Disable "Vertical Sync" in video settings.

nvinspector[www.techpowerup.com] for people using nvidia cards. Run it, click on the nvidia icon to the right of the Driver Version box, sort by application drop-down-box at the top and choose Left 4 Dead 2, then set the frame limiter to your preference and save/apply.

Its dangerous is what it is, you can seriously stuff your card up with programs like that. I'm not a big OC fan personally. Err just realised the pun, anyhow.
