core i5 intel hd poor OpenGL performance

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.
