TF2 Wiki showed me these too. Now I need to find out what they all do....

burning gibs are best when you set all deaths to be gibs

I have a present for anyone who can tell me whether it's worth it to go with all of the enhancements I listed, as I am too lazy to figure out each one myself.

Using the one you listed, I chopped out some:

cl_burninggibs 1
cl_detailfade 0
cl_new_impact_effects 1
cl_ragdoll_collide 1
cl_smooth 1
cl_threaded_bone_setup 1
cl_threaded_client_leaf_system 1
dsp_enhance_stereo 1
mat_aaquality 8
mat_antialiasing 16
mat_antialinis 16
mat_bumpmap 1
mat_clipz 0
mat_hdr_tonemapscale 16
mat_picmip -10
mat_specular 1
mp_usehwmmodels 1
mp_usehwmvcds 1
r_fastzreject 1
r_lod 0
r_threaded_client_shadow_manager 1
r_threaded_particles 1
r_threaded_renderables 1
r_waterforceexpensive 1
snd_mixahead 0

I clipped off the detaildist because I don't snipe often and really don't pay attention to that far in the distance while it gave me a moderate FPS hit. All of the detaildist execs relate to how good stuff looks when it's really far away compared to what's next to you. I didn't notice a different but my FPS did. You probably won't. Anything mat_ relates to textures and graphics, use them unless they cause crashes. Most of what's in there is obvious from looking at the name, but anything that's _threaded_ in the cvar means it's set to take advantage of the multiple cores in your CPU. Read: better performance on multi-cores. snd_mixahead I changed to 0 because it caused audio lag when doing anything like firing guns, might not for you.

Should clear everything up

@gump: idea, write a tf2 tweak guide for front page.

[copulatingduck]

if u do u have to include a bit about using fps configs (more's and quantum's are the most popular) for all the people with older machines

This is pretty simple stuff that you can google, but I'll consider it

[Didzo]

I tried the longer (Gump edited) list, but it seems to make my FPS nosedive.

Yup, there are some commands in there that will own it, experiment with the threaded commands to see what works for you
