This is a motherboard chipset + OS problem, nothing can be done
software-wise to make the system resolve the timer closer then this.
IE: on WIN32 with a high-res timer running you either get 1ms resolution
(~1000fps) or you get 2ms (~512fps).
Players (even very good players) can't see the difference at all so it's no
big thing.

I got only 512FPS on my HLDS, is it possible to make timer even faster and
get 1000fps with this tool?

Subject: [hlds] ogsWatcher 1.0.6 Now Available
ogsWatcher 1.0.6 is now available for download at
http://gearbox.oathill.com/cbb/files/16/default.aspx.
This version marks the end of beta-testing, although version numbering
has
been preserved.
This release includes the following changes or additions:
1. The embedding high-precision timer, to support server FPS rates over
300, has been fixed and now works correctly.
2. An "Enabled" attribute has been added to individual game
configuration
sections, in the config file, so that games can be "turned off" without
deleting or replacing the config file.
3. A LocalIPAddress and LocalPort attribute have been added to allow for
explicit binding of the local IP endpoint to ogsWatcher - useful in
multi-interface hosts.
4. The AutoUpdate option has been removed. (stinkin' bad idea - better
to
use hldsupdate tool)
Once again, I would like to thank Adam Sando for his patient testing, for
noticing the high-precision timer bug, for reporting his problem with a
dual
interface server and for the Enabled switch suggestion.
ogsWatcher is a free Windows service which provides the means to
declaratively configure multiple Source game instances (DOD:S, CSS, etc)
and
to automatically run those games servers as either background or
foreground
tasks. Key features include:
- easy configuration via an XML config file
- many configurable settings including CVars, process priority, srcds
command line parameters and more
- runs as a true Windows service with automatic start and recovery
capabilities
- embedded high precision timer to enable higher server FPS
- srcds tasks can be run in foreground or background
- monitors game server instances and automatically restarts failed
servers
- graceful shutdown closes log files correctly
- detailed documentation
Cheers,
Frazer
