What's your connection? I mean you have cool computer, but it doesn't help if your connection is poor...

lol i have dsl...

If you run dedicated server with dsl connection I think you can run max 8-12 clients server but it depends what is your upload speed. You should run speed test to solve it.

For example upload speed ~512kb may run 6-8 clients dedicated server and so on. But if you are hosting server playing same time you should try 4-6 clients server to see if it is less laggy.

You are not alone, I have the same problem

I've just got back from a LAN where we were running servers both with and without PB enabled.

Without it - I get a smooth 80fps all the time. With it, I get a smooth 80 fps with the occasional SPIKE in the game which freezes me for around 0.2-0.4 seconds which occurs about every few minutes.

Normal play this is ok by me, but in matches - I have died because of it and it's very annoying to say none the least
