poor fps

Hello been playing ET for a while on this computer and on alot of maps I can barley get a stable 76 fps. Goldrush it goes down to 30-40 at parts and on public servers it can even be a little shit sometimes on adlernest.

I've updated my gpu drivers and tried some low cfg's and high ones being no difference between the 2.

My system


CPU: AMD Phenom 9650 Quad-Core OC 2.53GHz
MotherBoard: Asus
HD: SATA 160 GB
Monitor: Hanns-G 19
Keyboard: Standard Logitech
Mouse: Razer DeathAdder 3500dpi
Mousepad: Razer Goliathus SE
Sound: Intergrated
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT 1028MB
Memory: 4000MB RAM
O/S: Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 3)
Headset: Technika (Cheap)
Connection: ADSL 20MB (4MB most of the time)

Had this comp for almost 2 years or so and never had stable fps with it and with this comp I guess I should at least be able to have a stable fps of 76 lol

run et on one core only
Seems to of helped a little but when I keep checking it changed back to cpu0 when I selected cpu3 and every time I start ET I have to select 1 core also ?

just select core0
u have to do it everytime u play et or search for program which does it instead of u

Problem detected
I think it`s something with AMD quad-core :/ i can hardly play with stable 100 fps with AMD X4 9950 black edition.
I`m using radeon hd 4870 as graphic-card
newer games runs smoothly but in ET i have poor fps
I was thinking it's something to do with the processor also. O well :(
