CS:S console command

[pbmaster]

I know this is probably in the wrong area, but do any of you guys know what the console command for CS:S is to force it to render in Direct X 7? I really need the extra FPS for the comp I'm on right now...

I think it's not in the console of the game itself but in the launch options. To get to the launch options, on the game menu right click the CS:S icon. Then click properties, then "Set launch options". In the box that pops up, type in "-dxlevel 70" without the quotes.
