In general using console commands is the best way to test and see the impact of certain variables on your image quality and performance before you commit them to your System.cfg file for example. There are also several console commands which provide useful diagnostic or system information, such as r_displayinfo 1 to see your current FPS.

linky

press the ~ key to bring up the console, alternatively, and you can type it in, and also remember

By default, you are restricted to only a handful of console commands you can use which will work; entering any other valid commands will simply receive an error message. This 'restricted mode' can be permanently lifted by either using the con_restricted 0 command in the console, or by adding con_restricted=0 to your System.cfg file (See further below). More importantly, even after removing restricted mode, some commands are still 'system' commands which can only be changed if inserted into System.cfg or an original system file such as diff_normal.cfg. See the Config Files section below for an explanation of this.

Fraps?

I have fraps, but it seems to give a bit of slowdown.

FRAPS is godawful if you have Vista IMO, it seems to cause lag for no reason at all. I used to use FRAPS a lot with XP, but with vista its a nightmare.

As has been said, r_displayinfo 1 is the command

Maybe that is why Crysis in Vista feels laggy when in XP it feels smooth as I was using Fraps with both, thanks for the tip.
