I want to run CS:source flawlessly and by the look of the videos/ screenshots i have seen it is gonna need a good setup to run it.

what do u guys think is the minimum to run it perfectly? 6800nu and a A64 3000+ 1 gig ram do the trick or what?

thx
 
I bet a 2.8 p4 with 9800 pro and 512 PC3200 would do it, oh that's what I have!
 
Finally CS gamers will have reason to justify their tricked out systems...

It always cracks me up to see guys with OC'd etc. systems to play a 6 year old game.

Not to bash; I play CS myself... I just find it amusing.
 
1024x768 on high with 2x aa 2x af
pentium 4 3.0 ghz
1 gb pc3200 ddr ram
nvidia 5900 ultra

^^^^ System runs it hella good for nvidia cards blowing so much, i dont go below 40 fps. Eat that ati.
 
To run the game decently, I assume you need along the lines of:
2.4GHz P4
Radeon 9600XT
512MB

Yeah, for NVIDIA cards supposedly being so horrible in the game mine performs great.

cs:s is not a 6 year old game.
 
No, but the original counter-strike is based on 6 yr old technology. He's pointing out that people have like a 2.4C @ 3.2 and all they play is Counter-Strike.... whats the friggin point?
 
^^^ What he said. CS:S is basically CS *ported* to the Source engine, which is the same engine HL2 is built on. So in essence its a remake of the old CS on a completely new game engine.

Comparing CS:S to old CS is *akin* to comparing original Doom to Doom3. Completely different engines all together (aside from Doom3 not being an exact remake of Doom, but you get the point).
 
XP2100 @ 2.1GHZ
512MB DDR
Radeon 9800 Pro

FPS is pretty shit, runs at like 30 - 60 fps.
