No way that should be lagging in CS1.6. Try the things in my post here:

What is your ping like? Maybe your internet connection has changed slightly causing worse internet gaming performance.

Could that be the source of your lag? I don't play online games much, so I don't really know what kind of a ping it takes for a network connection to cause your game to lag... :dontknow:

You can usually get small cans of compressed air at just about any office supply store. They work good to blow out all the dust from the little corners of the case and the fins of the heatsinks.

Just do NOT under any circumstances turn the can upside down when dusting the computer out. Can you create a server in 1.6, and see if it still lags?

it could be the servers. i have streaks where i just get in lots of bad servers and i begin to question if it's my hardware or someone elses...
i agree, you should try starting your own game
