core i5 intel hd poor OpenGL performance

idata — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 21:32:11 GMT

I bought laptop with this integrated graphics chip because i thought it will have no problems to handle 10 years old game at 100FPS, but obviously i was wrong. When i read on internet (for example http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Graphics-Media-Accelerator-HD.23065.0.html here) that opengl performance is not good, it was late. For most time i get approximately 50FPS in Counter-Strike 1.6, which is game based on OpenGL Half-Life 1 engine. It is unacceptable for me that Intel is after 8 months of release this piece of hardware still not able to release driver which can use full potential of this chip in such an old and popular engine. I know i can't do anything about it, i just hope you will release driver with fixed opengl support as soon as possible.

yeah and by the way game is set in VGA resolution (640x480 !!!), uses special models for boosting fps and graphic card is set to performance
