A Huge update was released today for AMX Mod X! Version 1.70 was suppose to be released tomarrow, but they just couldnt wait. Read below!

Well, we couldn't wait another day... I'm proud to announce one of the biggest AMX Mod X releases to date, AMX Mod X 1.70! This is a feature-packed release that adds massive optimization and many features. We've fixed up the New Menu system, added forwarding API to plugins, improved HUD synchronization, and more. Critical optimizations to floating point math and string formatting will give you a noticeable CPU usage improvement, as beta testers have reported. AMX Mod X is now the fastest and most flexible of any AMX Mod to date! You can download the latest binaries Here As always, plugins should be fully backwards compatible. There is no need to recompile. The webcompiler will be upgraded to 1.70 shortly. Note that you do need Metamod-1.19p28, and that the official Metamod 1.19 will be out later this week. To give you an idea of how much we've improved the speed of AMX Mod X with 1.70, take a gander at our Benchmark Tests. We've even made the full suite of benchmark tests, raw data, plus sourcecode, available for everyone. On some machines we were able to push up to 3X speed increases for some of the tests. Not sure what AMX Mod X is? Wondering why you should choose it? Check out the AMX Mod X "Why" FAQ.
