Hello :)
I just wanted some help with my computer right now with TF2 with the regards in fps and keeping it high, well or even constant Ive been having these troubles since the first day I downloaded tf2 not getting anywhere more than 15 fps or less on a good day. To tell you the truth its gotten so bad that once I'm spectating on the map Upward and I'm looking at the map I get a constant 9 fps. I would love help with this now because I've been interested in starting Competitive TF2 and with these frames I barely can handle midfights without freezing, stuttering then just dying and just being a plain burden to my team. Also if your wondering I've tried the normal Chris' Max frames, Highframes and now I'm using the newer Comanglia fps config as well. I also have a few mods to help like :
Light Particles Pack: http://tf2.gamebanana.com/sprites/5309
Clean tf2 : (Ive removed a bit of parts of it due to the game breaking at some points) http://www.teamfortress.tv/21756/prism-hud-amp-clean-tf2
All hat removal : http://teamfortress.tv/thread/16179/no-hats-mod
Nosoundscapes ( I dont think this help fps in anyway)
Computer Specs :
AMD Athlon Processor TF-20
2.0GB (1.75 useable)
ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics
Also I would like to know should I set my fps_max to either 60, 132, or 40 or less

You wont be able to run TF2 at a good frame rate with that hardware.

Well yes I know this but I just want to be able to run the game atleast at a constant fps

Play on the lowest resolution you can, might help gpu bottlenecking.

Honestly, the only way you could run tf2 with that hardware is if you turn it into an 8bit 2D side scroller.
Now, for some actual productive input - the fps max should be set to something that you can maintain constantly. No point in capping it at 132 or 60 or whatever when you can't even achieve those numbers, let alone maintain them constantly. Just leave it uncapped.

leave fps uncapped and lower ur resolution ALL THE WAY. keep comanglia's config on and keep nohats etc, make sure ur running dx8 as well.
