I think what "LinuxMail" is trying to say is when it comes to "Server FPS" it's not like there is a pool you can draw from. Limiting the max_fps just means the server will not exceed that framerate. The resources used to get there will still be used up. The hz rate (or tickrate) of a kernel is not directly linked to the FPS (or ticrate) of a hlds/srcds server. The hz is a timing mechanism for the kernel for processing commands, while framerate is the performance of such action.
I hope that helps.
