And the server list pings do tend to spike for me as well.

Alright thanks.

kraid:
You still run under DX8.
Check in your advanced graphics settings, it should be written there.

Removing the -dxlevel 81 again on the next start is the usual procedure,
otherwise it would reset your graphics settings everytime you launch the game.

If you want DX9 again, you should use -dxlevel 90 or even -dXlevel 95 and see if this works out now.
Your card should be able to handle DX9 by default, so there is no need to restrict it to DX8, except if you do it for performance reasons.

In that case you should try to run the mod with lower settings for AA and AF at first and also disable "dynamic lights on explosions" and "heatwave effect on explosions" in the advanced multiplayer options.
